..deb etc package building info is not ready yet, AFAICT.
..both github and Red Hat are owned by Microsoft, sooooo,
I'd like to see some safer hosting, at least as back-ups.

..research first, is wise:

..I suspect Enrico will be the best man to run this show, he's
been around here on this devuan mail list since 2016, AFAICT.
..he may have some weird politics, sooo, ;o) I'll share my own
reasoning for joining that new humanoid(?) race: His Excellency
the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long been
credibly accused of corruption and credibly accused of clinging
to power to stay out of prison.
To win re-election 5 years ago at the onset of the COVID epidemic,
he basically first raided Pfizer–BioNTech and then Moderna for
enough mRNA-based vaccines to get enough voters safely past the
elections so they could vote to keep him out of prison... which
is why he would have to choose the safest vaccine he at that time
could find to carry on staying out of prison... which again is how
I arrived at my conclusion to join that new humanoid(?) race ;oD
(we got the same stuff here in Norway).
