But within the functional area of the SIG/team. And you know I'm a big fan
of more independence of SIGs, and to be honest, I think for Desktops, it's
a good move to remove sendmail and rsyslog. The underlying bits should be
identical, from the documentation perspective, supportability (ah, we do
not have support ;-).

One of the Flock proposals says, this should be standard to differ more,
another one is more about stable underlying bits, let's see :)
