Also not a member of "everyone". I allways found Gnome ugly and 
user-unfriendly. I was never able to get anything out of Gnome Shell 
and, for some time, since KDE had regressed -- they had removed the 
possibility to edit submenus, I fell down to Gnome classic, until I 
switched to Xfce. I will probably never go back to Gnome or KDE. 
Everyone is counted in Debian's poll because Gnome is brought in by the 
installer. They probably don't count you down when you remove the packages.

     Nevertheless, it is a great job to have desinfected it and made it 
available to Devuan. Congratulations Jaret. In addition, it demonstrates 
that the argument that systemd was required by Gnome was just a lie. It 
will make the Devuan project even more convincing.
