Just +1 agree on this and looking forward to a flow of RFC documents
on Devuan infra to be debated avoiding universal statements as "cannot
be written in X language" of sorts. Our current priority is distribute

Daniel please stop obstructing work being done with reviews until a
documentation is submitted and please regard the setup of the server
you are assigned as the highest priority since that is a blocker to
involvement right now!


ciao
