(I don't speak for the VUA but, from what i've been reading...)
Systemd is perceived as not freedom-friendly, hence the fork. If
pulseaudio and/or avahi are similar, in this respect, to systemd then,
yes, they may be forked in the future. However, the purpose is not to
dePoetterize but to make sure you always have choice: in what init
system you want to use, what sound daemon, what zeroconf daemon, what
ever, etc. So if you don't like <insert software name here>, ideally
you should be able to replace it with something else without
completely crippling your system. Or rather, replacing it would be a
no-brainer in Devuan.
