Phoronix has an article up about some interesting ideas of Lennart Poettering about what could be a possible future for Linux:
Lennart Poettering of systemd and PulseAudio fame has published a lengthy blog post that shares his vision for how he wishes to change how Linux software systems are put together to address a wide variety of issues. The Btrfs file-system and systemd play big roles with his new vision. Long story short, Lennart is trying to tackle how Linux distributions and software systems themselves are assembled to improve security, deal with the challenges of upstream software vendors integrating into many different distributions, and "the classic Linux distribution scheme is frequently not what end users want."

After ANY change, you'll have to learn how the new thing works. It was true for alsa, udev, and everything else before it. If your only complaint is that something is different, and you don't know, and don't want to learn, how to use the new thing, that just makes you a Luddite, and doesn't actually speak to the item in question.
