I wasn't participating in those discussions. Maybe I should have. For
that, my friends, I am sorry. I am sorry to open a can of worms of
perhaps what is a sensitive issue with those of you who were involved in
the discussion and the exodus.
My gut feeling is that discussion is a waste of time. You won't
influence the politics, you won't actually learn anything from the
discussion and you'll divert time and energy away from moving in the
forward direction.
The reason I want to know about that is because if most Debian users are
desktop users, perhaps it's for the better that they went with systemd
as the default. It gives more credence to Devuan as the professional
choice.
I'd rather just keep doing what we're doing and working on a credible
alternative. The results will speak for themselves rather than more
rattling of empty tins.
Let's keep our eyes on the ball.
