The main problem being that providing a "proof-of-concept" is not enough for a distribution like Devuan, on which several other distribution are based already. I believe that the thing should work as usually those things work in the FLOSS community: if there is a pool of interested developers who want to do it, they should do it, and do it in a sustainable way. Wishing for GNOME 3 to be available in Devuan would not, per se, make it happen with higher proability ;) HND KatolaZ -- [ ~.,_ Enzo Nicosia aka KatolaZ - GLUGCT -- Freaknet Medialab ] [ "+. katolaz [at] freaknet.org --- katolaz [at] yahoo.it ] [ @) http://kalos.mine.nu --- Devuan GNU + Linux User ] [ @@) http://maths.qmul.ac.uk/~vnicosia -- GPG: 0B5F062F ] [ (@@@) Twitter: @KatolaZ - skype: katolaz -- github: KatolaZ ]
