Phoronix reports the systemd developers are having their first conference. Here is a direct link to the YouTube video channel.

Whether you love systemd or hate it, it looks like it's not going away. If you dislike it maybe one of these videos might change your mind.

    Enable Javascript. Make sure you're using systemd. View the whole thing on a 30" monitor consisting of s single Gnome3 window that is 94% empty space... :-)

      fatphil, AC: It also works if you enable Javascript, purge systemd from your half-Wheezy half-Jessie system, and view it on a screen controlled by LXDE :-)

      The article itself is interesting and well-written, I found.

        He (Jude) also explains the design a bit, I'm not going to copy his article, but the three main points are:

        - the ( /dev ) filesystem is the API (*)
        - the shell is the glue
        - there are multiple device event sources

        he says vdev should work without DBus as well, and multi-platform not just Linux.

        (*) but, he also says that the /dev filesystem alone is not enough to represent the notions of "seat", "login session" and "container".

        Ha, gotta love the wheezy Jessie!
        apt-get install -t unstable
        Is my friend.
        I would jump ship to BSD if there were any distro that supported Xen and ZFS
        but until then it's bastard hybrid Debian all the way!
