For those interested, the Systemd release that's planned to include the controversial 'birthDate' field to user records, complying with age-verification laws, is v261 (see 'milestone' in the pull request). This release seems to be planned for May.

The current release, from some hours ago, is v260.1. I see that Ubuntu Noble (24.04) just updated to v255.

not seeing anything when searching for it, do you have a link? looking on the github it's still merged so it's difficult to believe

Maybe I dreamed it. Maybe it wasn't systemd.
