Well, in my personal opinion devuan should not focus on new users, as
nor debian does.

For new users there are plenty of distros, most notable ubuntu, and we
should not compete with it.

We should focus on moderately expert to professional sysadmins and
geeks, so, after some years of ubuntu if a user want to go to a more
UNIX compliant distro, should switch to devuan.

Second focus is to be a "base framework" for derivates, and then
derivates can of course choose to focus on users, and to do that switch
to a more easy to learn editor maybe, or maybe switch to a GUI editor
for newbies.
