*** From
https://git.devuan.org/devuan/devuan-project/wikis/ProjectDescription

"Devuan is born for a simple goal: having a systemd-free debian jessie
to preserve freedom choice on init and decoupling between init and the
rest of the system ... initially, it will NOT be a complete fork, but
just a complete infrastructure to distribute a personalized version of
debian jessie, testing and unstable where some packages from us will be
pinned up on top of the debian repositories..."

For the future, nobody can tell, but obviously there's an orientation
towards minimalism and continuity.
