A point to keep in mind is that, especially in the beginning, people coming to Devuan will be more geek-like than the average Debian user, and will be know how to find and install whatever package they need which is not installed by default.

So I would suggest we keep the default install as small as possible.

And since I dont have any holidays, Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to all.
