In the absence of payment, it seems clear that 100% of decision making
resides with the implementers - users merely provide suggestions. The
counterbalance is that when implementers don't provide what the users
need, then they go elsewhere, as we have done.

I'm still observing, to see whether devuan gains substance, or will
remain an appendage of debian, forever scratching at monolithic monsters,
introduced into debian specifically to M$-ify it into a purely
commercial product, but never quite breaking free from that tarpit.
