 systemd System and Service Manager
 
+CHANGES WITH 200:
+
+        * The boot-time readahead implementation for rotating media
+          will now read the read-ahead data in multiple passes which
+          consist of all read requests made in equidistant time
+          intervals. This means instead of strictly reading read-ahead
+          data in its physical order on disk we now try to find a
+          middle ground between physical and access time order.
+
+        * /etc/os-release files gained a new BUILD_ID= field for usage
+          on operating systems that provide continuous builds of OS
+          images.

+
+CHANGES WITH 199:
+
+        * systemd-python gained an API exposing libsystemd-daemon.
+
+        * The SMACK setup logic gained support for uploading CIPSO
+          security policy.
+
+        * Behaviour of PrivateTmp=, ReadWriteDirectories=,
+          ReadOnlyDirectories= and InaccessibleDirectories= has
+          changed. The private /tmp and /var/tmp directories are now
+          shared by all processes of a service (which means
+          ExecStartPre= may now leave data in /tmp that ExecStart= of
+          the same service can still access). When a service is
+          stopped its temporary directories are immediately deleted
+          (normal clean-up with tmpfiles is still done in addition to
+          this though).
+
+        * By default, systemd will now set a couple of sysctl
+          variables in the kernel: the safe sysrq options are turned
+          on, IP route verification is turned on, and source routing
+          disabled. The recently added hardlink and softlink
+          protection of the kernel is turned on. These settings should
+          be reasonably safe, and good defaults for all new systems.
+
+        * The predictable network naming logic may now be turned off
+          with a new kernel command line switch: net.ifnames=0.
+
+        * A new libsystemd-bus module has been added that implements a
+          pretty complete D-Bus client library. For details see:
+
+          http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-March/009797.html
+
+        * journald will now explicitly flush the journal files to disk
+          at the latest 5min after each write. The file will then also
+          be marked offline until the next write. This should increase
+          reliability in case of a crash. The synchronization delay
+          can be configured via SyncIntervalSec= in journald.conf.
+
+        * There's a new remote-fs-setup.target unit that can be used
+          to pull in specific services when at least one remote file
+          system is to be mounted.
+
+        * There are new targets timers.target and paths.target as
+          canonical targets to pull user timer and path units in
+          from. This complements sockets.target with a similar
+          purpose for socket units.
+
+        * libudev gained a new call udev_device_set_attribute_value()
+          to set sysfs attributes of a device.
+
+        * The udev daemon now sets the default number of worker
+          processes executed in parallel based on the number of available
+          CPUs instead of the amount of available RAM. This is supposed
+          to provide a more reliable default and limit a too agressive
+          paralellism for setups with 1000s of devices connected.
