systemd System and Service Manager
+CHANGES WITH 182:
+ * udev: all udev sources are merged into the systemd source tree now.
+ All future udev development will happen in the systemd tree. It
+ is still fully supported to use the udev daemon and tools without
+ systemd running, like in initramfs or other init systems. Building
+ udev though, will require the *build* of the systemd tree, but
+ udev can be properly *run* without systems.
+
+ * udev: /lib/udev/devices/ are not read anymore; systemd-tmpfiles
+ should be used to create dead device nodes as workarounds for broken
+ subsystems.
+
+ * udev: RUN+="socket:..." and udev_monitor_new_from_socket() is
+ no longer supported. udev_monitor_new_from_netlink() needs to be
+ used to subscribe to events.
+
+ * udev: when udevd is started by systemd, processes which are left
+ behind by forking them off of udev rules, are unconditionally cleaned
+ up and killed now after the event handling has finished. Services or
+ daemons must be started as systemd services. Services can be
+ pulled-in by udev to ge started, but they can no longer be directly
+ forked by udev rules.
+
+ * udev: the daemon binary is called systemd-udevd now and installed
+ in /usr/lib/systemd/. Standalone builds or non-systemd systems need
+ to adapt to that, create symlink, or rename the binary after building
+ it.
+
+ * systemd-logingctl and systemd-journalctl have been renamed
+ to logingctl and journalctl to match systemctl.
+
+ * The config files: /etc/systemd/systemd-logind.conf and
+ /etc/systemd/systemd-journald.conf have been renamed to
+ logind.conf and journald.conf. Package updates should rename
+ the files to the new names on upgrade.
+
+CHANGES WITH 44:
+ * This is mostly a bugfix release
+
+ * Support optional initialization of the machine ID from the
+ KVM or container configured UUID.
+
+ * Support immediate reboots with "systemctl reboot -ff"
+
+ * Show /etc/os-release data in systemd-analyze output
+
+ * Many bugfixes for the journal, including endianess fixes and
+ ensuring that disk space enforcement works
+
+ * sd-login.h is C++ comptaible again
+
+ * Extend the /etc/os-release format on request of the Debian
+ folks
+
+ * We now refuse non-UTF8 strings used in various configuration
+ and unit files. This is done to ensure we don't pass invalid
+ data over D-Bus or expose it elsewhere.
+
+ * Register Mimo USB Screens as suitable for automatic seat
+ configuration
+
+ * Read SELinux client context from journal clients in a race
+ free fashion
+
+ * Reorder configuration file lookup order. /etc now always
+ overrides /run in order to allow the administrator to always
+ and unconditionally override vendor supplied or
+ automatically generated data.
+
+ * The various user visible bits of the journal now have man
+ pages. We still lack man pages for the journal API calls
+ however.
+
+ * We now ship all man pages in HTML format again in the
+ tarball.
