[systemd-devel] Documentation about upstreaming unit files

Dear systemd folks,


    $ git grep upstream

does not return anything regarding how projects should ship unit files. 

I can think of the following questions.

1. What license should the unit files have? The one of the upstream
project?

2. Should the unit files be put in a directory `systemd/`?

3. Do the distributions install the file to the correct directory
`/lib/systemd/system/` or is the upstream build system supposed to do
that?

4. What should upstream do if the service files differ for
distributions?


Thanks,

Paul
