[$] Systemd programming part 2: activation and language issues
This is the second half of a pair of articles looking at systemd as a
programming language for the specification and management of system
services. Part 1 was concerned with
modularity issues and how services can be configured. This part continues
with a look at the various ways to control the activation of services before
getting into an overall look at issues with systemd's language. While
systemd has been extensively discussed as an init system, there is value in
regarding it from a language point of view as well.
