Regarding https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=832508 on the demise of systemd-shim. Posting here because it's unlikely many will see a post to devuan-discuss (if it ever gets approved).

Just a suggestion, but maybe ping a Devuan mailing list. If those guys
are interested in continuing to support sysvinit then maybe they would
be happy to take this.

I'd much prefer to see efforts within Debian that can benefit a wider
community than hacks patched on top that only benefit a smaller group.

Thanks,
Iain.

Good idea, I sent it to
https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/list/devuan-discuss.en.html
(might take a bit to appear, I'm not subscribed).
