[kwlug-disc] What is all this about systemd?

[William Park]

Hmm... after eliminating dhcpd, named, httpd, samba, crond, atd, ntpd,
etc (anything ending in 'd'), systemd will handle memory management,
process scheduling, etc.  After that, systemd will take over shell.
I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
