While it's correct that systemd isn't catering to portability, large chunks of it is covered by the interface stability promise (see the table on https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/InterfacePortabilityAndStabilityChart/) so other init systems are free to implement them if they so want. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are
