I'm only a supporter, and a slow sopporter (I take time to do things).
But I know that eudev is maintained by Gentoo developers (Anthony
Basile, a true unix oriented wizard), and that it is in my Gentoo
system. It is also ported on a number of other non-systemd Gnu/Linux
distro, so eudev should not be a problem in Devuan.

This very ML is only getting a fraction of all the echos the work that
is being done in Devuan, but I still don't follow all that is going on.

However, it seems to me that Devuan is now slowly beginning to firmly
stand on its feet and Devuan is proudly out of the (what's the word,
non-native speaker here) [[hardships that a nascent person goes through
at birth]]...

Have a look at Jaromil's, the main lead, presentation:
Devuan GNU+Linux presented at FSCONS 2016

Read more about it also here:

And, one of the places is also:
http://dev1galaxy.org/

As still mainly Gentoo users, I can tell you that Devuan is sometimes,
not rarely at all, mentioned in Gentoo ML, with respect, and developers
here regard Devuan as a good project with future...

However, no all is done, and you will see issues occasionally. Others
may add more to my understanding, for you.
