In the meeting last week, i was tasked with editing the first
systemd
article here:

however, on review, i found that this was quite far from what we discussed
in the meeting for the first entry-level article in the series. So i created
a new article for Part 0 (as i am calling it) of the systemd series:
http://fedoramagazine.org/?p=10202
It basically covers the question of what an init system is, and what it does
-- with little about systemd itself (hence the part 0).
Any thoughts on if this is a good start to the series, (and also a technical
review would also be good).
We talked about this a bit in the meeting last night, so anyone should
feel free to check the log if needed:

The upshot was, this draft makes a bit more sense as an introduction,
but could use a bit of sprucing up still -- one example being to
describe extended systemd functionality (beyond boot/init) and why
it's baked in there. (I anticipate a bunch of hater comments anyhow,
but whatevs.) :-D
