-- Implement a new 'notify-defer' configuration option.
+- Implement a new :namedconf:ref:`notify-defer` configuration option.
 
   This new option sets a delay (in seconds) to wait before sending a set
-  of NOTIFY messages for a zone. Whenever a NOTIFY message is ready to
-  be sent, sending will be deferred for this duration. This option is
-  not to be confused with the :any:`notify-delay` option. The default is

 - Implement the systemd notification protocol manually to remove
   dependency on libsystemd.
 
-  libsystemd, despite being useful, adds a huge surface area for just
-  using the sd_notify API. libsystemd's surface has been exploited in
-  the past [1].
-
-  Implement the systemd notification protocol by hand since it is just
-  sending newline-delimited datagrams to a UNIX socket. The code
-  shouldn't need more attention in the future since the notification
-  protocol is covered under systemd's stability promise [2].
-
-  We don't need to support VSOCK-backed service notifications since they
-  are only intended for virtual machine inits.
