However I personally share his implicit praise of s6 and runit. what I bring home after reading this is the idea of a supervisor that manages cgroups and LXC containers in a simple way and, to inherit some standardised work being done in systemd, supports its service units. if I'd be up for writing something like this, I'd use a LISP dialect (guile?) and heavily rely on LXD / LXC2. That would be my dream system, wondering if GNU shepherd covers this case? I still have to study it and yea BTW also omitting shepherd (aka DMD) makes this article still very incomplete. but good read! looking forward to more opinions and pointers ciao _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
