Hi Brad, I really struggle to follow your logic here, and in particular I don't see how having a well-formulated backup plan can contribute to the success of your primary plan. I actually think that a too-well-formulated backup plan will hinder your potential success in the primary one: if something tiny goes wrong in your main plan you don't have to bang your head on the wall. Just switch to your perfect backup plan, let the others continue banging their heads on that bloody wall, and you'll be fine on your own. I could switch to FreeBSD tomorrow, and most probably not even notice the difference, but I would personally consider that a big failure. Hence, for me that "backup plan" does not exist. I will continue to bang my head on the wall until Devuan works for me. If there are more of us willing to bang their heads on the wall to make Devuan work, each of us will bang his own head for less time, with less harm, and with much larger probability of having the issue solved. What I meant is that the success of Devuan is definitely bound to none of the Devuan users and developers giving up on Devuan. In other words, to the Devuan community not stopping to cater and care for Devuan. However it can. Whatever it costs.
