All good points. Just want to add though that probably one of the causes of
all the idle chatter is that we in the audience don't yet have Devuan in
our hot little hands, so we have no technical questions, no bug reports,
etc. All we can do for entertainment chat about what Richard Stallman
thinks of systemd, suggest that Pottering is evil, and enquire about when
Devuan-alpha will be released. I try to avoid those silly discussions, but
have occasionally broken down and participated.

Once we have the alpha in our hot little hands, we can begin to discuss the
real technology, and stop wasting developers' time with trivia. And I may
finally start my long-awaited project to help writing the documentation.

cheers,
