So did you see the fallout on the LKML?

http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1504.1/index.html#03936

SystemDisease developers try again to infect the kernel with their nasty kernel-dbus, and Linus and several other senior maintainers trash it for being a terrible, insecure layer of crap. SystemDisease developers just smiley-face (seriously) and try to act innocent, and claim that if people don't want it, they can just disable it in the kernel, that it won't become a hard dependency. Meanwhile, the same people over on their SystemDisease blogs state that as soon as it's in the kernel, it will become a hard dependency by SystemDisease and several other projects they control.

Senior maintainers discover this and call them out on their shenanigans. SystemDisease developers then claim Linux is full of mysognists and racists, trying to use identity politics to brow-beat Linus and friends into submission. Linus tells to fuck off and that he'll never accept any pull requests from them.

Get the level of bloated idiocy in this:

Launching programs using dbus has been a topic of interest for many months.
This would allow simple systems to only start services that are needed,
and that are automatically started only when first requested.
This removes the need for an init system, and means that we can trivially
startup services in parallel.

Turns out that starting only services that are needed is somehow a great achievement, lol.
