[mdlug] Systemd Should Be A Fork -- Why Is It Not?

[Brian Brodsky]

Okay, I am not going to claim to understand the inner workings of either 
of these. I have used both systemd on centOS 7, my kubuntu laptop and my 
Arch desktop. I have also used its predecessors on CentOS 5, 6, older 
Kubuntu and Ubuntu desktop software. This is a religious war, but one I 
always find informative when I follow. However a fork is not always the 
the best solution. Sometimes you need to throw away the crap. On a 
smaller scale should openssl be forked or patched or should it be 
trashed and is LibreSSL the right way of thinking?
