One can argue with the process by which systemd was delivered to market, but the deprecation of sysvinit is a practical certainty; it's simply, now, a matter of time. systemd is a fact of life for Fedora, Gentoo, Arch & Debian -- all are embracing it, or already have. Redhat/Centos are well under way. Ubuntu's off on its upstart tangent ... What's lacking in Opensuse iis a concerted, mandated, and well-communicated effort at ensuring that every daemon has a functional systemd unit, and robust/current documentation. NOT systemd's underlying functionality. systemd on Opensuse, as v37 in 12.1, or v44 in 12.2 & beyond, is perfectly capable of managing enterprise apps/daemons. To retain any semblance of credibility in the enterprise going forward, as well as to address the realities of limited resources, Domnique's recommendation that "the openSUSE Project should focus on SystemD as the one supported Init System" should be given serious consideration. There's justifiable argument on both issues that it should have been done for 12.2 release, which is already causing headaches on the ground.
