Textual words:

[...] Release four distinct versions of gNewSense, including a
distribution that includes a subset
of packages for a focused user experience, one that is essentially
vanilla Debian with our
freedom improvements, a developer edition with the latest and greatest
GNU development tools,
and a server edition that is based on the work of the Devuan community 
[...]
