I'm not quite sure I qualify as one :)

But I'd still like to recommend Neil Brown's excellent article series on
LWN:
 http://lwn.net/Articles/584175/
 http://lwn.net/Articles/584176/

You'll have to subscribe to read those now (or wait).  But I assume the
Debian developers group subscription still applies? Ref
http://lwn.net/Articles/13797/

I'm not a DD, so I cannot verify that...  Anyway, LWN is certainly worth
paying for, even if you're not going to use systemd :-)
