dear devs,

we receive this from a Debian volunteer

do we want to enter the census as a 'derivative'?

I disagree with this, since I think we are not, but ask you here nevertheless

also there is a strange detail in this mail, which was sent in HTML
and rendered by my mail client using w3m: the first link to devuan.org
has a href pointing to mxlinux.org. I really hope they won't include
us by mistake with a wrong link now.

curious about your opinion. the origin of the mail is left out for
privacy (is a personal gmail account for some reason)

Subject: Devuan: invitation to join the Debian derivatives census

Hi,
I note that you are producing a software distribution based on Debian.

[1]https://devuan.org/
[2]https://www.debian.org/

I would like to invite you to add your distribution to the Debian
derivatives census, which attempts to gather detailed information
about Debian derivatives that is useful to Debian, for integration of
that information into Debian infrastructure and for the development of
relationships between Debian and our derivatives. In addition we will
be doing some QA on the data that you enter into the census.

[3]https://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Census
[4]https://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Integration
[5]https://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/CensusQA

Please direct any questions you have to the derivatives list or IRC
channel. We strongly encourage you to join both of these.

Thanks
