Post Syndicated from daroc original https://lwn.net/Articles/971866/

The

systemd project
is preparing for a new release.

Version 256-rc1
was released
on April 25 with a large number of changes and new features. Most of the
changes relate to security, easier configuration, unprivileged access to system
resources, or all three of these. Users of systemd will find setting up
containers — even without root access — much simpler and more secure.
