Please excuse me, I know many of you can see this like a good tribute for
Ian, but naming "Ian" to the first Devuan stable release could sound like
using his name for the cause, at least for some evil-minded people.

He was a big man for the Open Source community, so let him R.I.P.

Please don't be mad at me, I could be wrong, it's only my point of view.

Have a nice end of 2015!
