題目: Re: [Dng] Would like to help with Devuan
Welcome aboard, Jeremy!

The easiest way to help out is to use Devuan regularly, and keep track of
the things about it that bother you. Then, try to figure out how to fix
them, and share your fixes--be they new program configurations, shell
scripts, Python scripts or C programs. If you ever get stuck, feel free to
email the list and we can help you :)
