Exactly! Well said. Stefano's take on this is abominable. That's why we're
here, right? To escape Debian governance and the fact it's being
monopolized by Gnome developers and systemd fan boys.

Devuan - All the apt you can handle with none of the systemd headache.

Just to be clear: I've seen a lot of cross talk about the possibility of
systemd being put into Devuan via a sandbox or even having the systemd API
written in. Is it safe to assume that going forward that there will be no
systemd in Devuan? Because if there is, I'm in the wrong place.
