david, small favour to ask you (for archival purposes as well as
convenience) - finding posts, or even the mailing lists themselves, on
which the discussions you mention may be found, turns out to be um
rather challenging if you happen not to have subscribed to those
lists, such that every day you've seen all the discussions and know
what to look for, and where.

 would you therefore be so kind as to publish some hints - specific
keyword phrases more general than "PID1 cgroups" which is about the
limit of what i can think might apply (which ironically comes up with
every archive linking to *this* thread.... *sigh*), or better perhaps
some specific references to specific mailing lists.

 many many thanks,

l.
