Please keep questions like this on systemd-devel, or on #systemd on freenode.

There's quite a bit of documentation around already, even though it is
a very new piece of code which is available in Rawhide only so
far. We'll extend the available documentation as we come closer to a
stable release of Fedora.

If you build systemd you can leave it out of your build. On Fedora it is
enabled however.

We do have documentation, and a lot of information has been made
available upstream. systemd is one of the projects that Fedora uses, but
is not the only user of. The same way as we generally try to avoid
having detailed discussions about specific Apache modules on
fedora-devel, we try to avoid too specific discussions on systemd too,
especially if there's no direct relation to Fedora here.

systemd-logind is a systemd service, not a Fedora-specific service.
