No, maintaining both boot methods, even if upstream weren't abandoning init scripts (which they are going to) would be a terrible waste of time.
I agree at all.
This reads funny :-)
I'm trying systemd in these days, I like how the system is managed and my distro is "a bit" more standard.
... and upstream has stated that while its not worthwhile to actually share code, they are supportive (and encouraging) common interfaces/formats/protocols for startup tasks (such as DBUS interfaces and whatnot for setting hostname, etc) so implementations on other platforms -- eg. the BSDs -- could support applications designed for systemd. IMO its very refreshing to finally see these deficiencies being tackled. -- C Anthony
