TDE provides basic support for systemd - from TDM through kdesktop to 
tdepowersave. What is not yet implemented, is support for multi-seat.

By Darrell is also a proposal to add support into k3b - inhibitor for 
suspend / shutdown during recording media (bug 2389).

In this I have again and again oppose. It has already been repeatedly shown 
that failure in closing the processes had a different cause and no connection 
with systemd. See bug 1902.

Systemd is currently used on Debian 8.x (Jessie) and Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid). I 
also do tests on Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) with added systemd. For Ubuntu is also 
created systemd service for TDM:
