I totally agree with this. It's not worth the effort, I've been signed
up to the devuan-derivatives ML for ages and besides recently a there
being a bunch of invites to a bunch of distributions (this invitation is
*not* devuan-specific but appears to be mostly automated / templated)
nothing interesting happening.
We can always change our mind down the line while keeping an eye on the
