Heya,

with systemd we follow the git development model: i.e. please post your patches to the mailing list for discussion and we'll merge them then. Alternatively, if you have a large number of patches, set up your personal public git repo and ask us to merge from it.

For contributing following the git model you need no users created on fdo. All you need is subscribe to the mailing list, and optionally create your own publicly accesible git repository some place. However unless you plan to contribute a massive patch set that isn't even necessary.

For this I've to investigate systemd much more than I've done ;) My ambition
and intention would be to make systemd as fast as the combination of the old
sysvinit with insserv(8) and the startpar(8) tool. The features I've implemented
in insserv like X-Interactive, X-Start-Before, and X-Stop-After seems to be
already part of systemd service handling.
