# The Boot Loader Specification
_TL;DR: Currently there's little cooperation between multiple distributions in dual-boot (or triple, ... multi-boot) setups, and we'd like to improve this situation by getting everybody to commit to a single boot configuration format that is based on drop-in files, and thus is robust, simple, works without rewriting configuration files and is free of namespace clashes._

# Predictable Network Interface Names
Starting with v197 systemd/udev will automatically assign predictable, stable network interface names for all local Ethernet, WLAN and WWAN interfaces. This is a departure from the traditional interface naming scheme ("eth0", "eth1", "wlan0", ...), but should fix real problems.
