We all know Devuan is going to create a huge ripple in the great big pond, and join the ranks of the pro-choicers in regards to software usage.

While I'm following vdev closely, mostly to backport it to another distribution, Devuan's success will bring success to other choice giving distributions as well.

It's a win-win situation finally.

Subject: [DNG] Congratulations to the Devuan team

Hi,

I would like to convey my respect and appreciation to all participants,
acknowledging that Devuan GNU/Linux is in use here now as a functional
Linux Desktop which I use for tasks of software development and system
integration as well as for everyday mail, office and web stuff.

Good work! Keep it coming!

I definately look forward to vdev. Currently I try to involve myself
in testing it out a bit; it appears like a very elegant solution that
opens many interesting possibilities. I also heard that there is a
packaging effort, and I wonder how that is coming along.

I admit that in spite of issues I expressed previously on this list,
I currently use PolicyKit to enable some "administrative operations"
when using the system via XFCE4, simply because it's currently the
easiest way for me to do stuff like mounting hot-plugged disks or
managing libvirt guests.

But that clearly demonstrates the paradigm of "freedom of choice"
being successfully implemented in Devuan, where I can now freely
choose system components that serve my needs best.

Kind regards,
T.
