Instead the kernel defaults will be left + intact. This is definitely the right thing to do, as no + configuration should mean no configuration, and hard-coding + font names that are different on all archs is probably a bad + idea. Also, the kernel default key map and font should be + good enough for most cases anyway, and mostly identical to + the userspace fonts/key maps we previously overloaded them + with.

Fields larger than 4K will be + assigned null. This can be turned off with --all. + + * An (optional) journal gateway daemon is now available as + "systemd-journal-gatewayd.service". This service provides + access to the journal via HTTP and JSON. This functionality + will be used to implement live log synchronization in both + pull and push modes, but has various other users too, such + as easy log access for debugging of embedded devices.
