Hi all,

I know many of you are using Devuan in production and as your Daily
Driver. Patrick from debian-user expressed some trepidation about
moving to Devuan in his impending escape from a systemd-encumbered
Debian, and I figure maybe if he heard a few of your use cases, he
might feel more confident about his future in Linux. Please copy
Patrick in your replies.

Subject: Beginning of the End for Wheezy [sigh!]


Much to my regret (and others, too, I'm sure), yesterday, on 15 April
2016, the beginning of the end began for Wheezy. Google, as announced

Well, at least I have time to look for an alternative. Maybe, Devuan
will be viable by then, but I doubt it. Or Debian will offer a choice
of inits as a standard option during installs on future releases, but I
very much doubt it.
