> Dear Friends and Software Freedom Lovers,
>
> Devuan Developers are pleased to announce the release of Devuan Chimaera
> 4.0 as the project's newest stable release. This is the result of lots of
> painstaking work by the team and extensive testing by the wider Devuan
> community.

> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
> What's new in Chimaera 4.0?
>
> * Based on Debian Bullseye (11.1) with Linux kernel 5.10.
> * Your choice of init: sysvinit, runit, and OpenRC.
> * Improved desktop support - virtually all desktop environments available
> in Debian are now part of Devuan, systemd-free.
> * New boot, display manager and desktop theming.
> * Enhanced accessibility: installation via GUI or console can now be
> accomplished via software or hardware speech synthesis, or using a
> refreshable braille display, and Devuan Chimaera has the ability to
> install desktop environments without PulseAudio, allowing speech
> synthesis in both console and GUI sessions at the same time.
