Re: What is the connection between Microsoft and systemd?
I doubt very much that there can be any connection at all. Systemd
is specific to the Linux kernel. It doesn't work with BSD or Hurd,
although it someday if cgroups were added to their kernels. But
cgroups are not in Microsoft kernel and I doubt they will ever be
added. But opinions differ on what Microsoft will do and it is
really hard to predict the future. Microsoft also does not have
software packages like Debian has. Why doesn't anybody wonder about
when they will get their own innovative (open??) packaging system?
OK maybe there is a connection: They both are really scary to some
people on this list. ;)

I looked, but couldn't find much. Since I'm not familiar with systemd,
could someone please elaborate on what this alleged connection between
systemd and Microsoft is?
If I just searched for the wrong search terms, a few pointers to some
(reasonably authoritative) web pages would do nicely.
