I found the reply by GKH very interesting (read here), so... are we waiting for the Linus opinion or what?

So were are at least four implementations and I remember intel also having their own d-bus implementation being mentioned in a talk.

from the email :
this is something that finally fixes a number of almost unfixable races in the current dbus implementations.

Because some people (systemd, gnome, who??) don't want to rewrite their code to support a BETTER D-Bus API? Fuck the lazy people, Greg, I want a secure Kernel... and that's all it really comes down to.
