Systemd

[Julien Olivier]

Hi list,

are there any plans to switch from [upstart + canonical custom
systemd-compatible services] to upstream systemd?

I know stock Canonical is not interested in using systemd in stock
Ubuntu over its home-made solution, but is there any reason why Ubuntu
GNOME couldn't upload its own systemd packages into the main repository
and use them instead if upstream? Would that break the compatibility
with packages shared between Ubuntu desktop and Ubuntu GNOME desktop?

Seeing how GNOME seems to depend more and more on the real systemd, I
think that's something to think about...
