Re: [arch-general] Personal note

As a long term, quite silent user, the systemd drama does not struck me as special, new or exceedingly dramatic. I remember analogous, heated discussions also when the arch community was much smaller. E.g., I remember a devfs ---> udev transition drama, and a monolithic xfree ---> modular xorg one. In both cases, a minority was in favour of delaying or avoiding the change with a mix of technical and political reasons. In both cases the devs decided to follow upstream for the best. Obviously any case is potentially different, but a bit of historical memory can help to relativize the psychological aspects. Giorgio Lando
