Devuan Progress Report Published

Posted by Soulskill on from the still-kicking-and-still-forking dept.

zdzichu writes: The group of anonymous Italians behind the recent Debian fork have published their first progress report. It covers a wide range of topics: the 4.5k€ of donations received so far, moving distro infrastructure from GitHub to GitLab, progress on LoginKit (which replaces systemd's logind), fraud accusations, logo discussions, and few more important points.

    Choice is not a matter of just pressing a button and have it magically appear. Someone has to actually maintain it. The Devuan developers think that they can do that. If so then that's great. It's sad that they don't think that they can do the same thing within Debian though I understand their reasoning. It takes a lot of time and effort to get into Debian and they want to be more pragmatic.
