Re: [Dng] About Devuan's audience

2015-02-18 Thread Nuno Magalhães
Didn't know this thread was poll-ish.

I use/administer/whatever 100 machines at the moment: 11 run linux,
the other 1 (my laptop) runs windows while still in warranty (and
because in a realistic world i have to deal with Microsoft Office,
although i've heard its 2003 version runs well in WINE). Of the 11
linux boxes:
* 1 is my desktop which currently runs Whezzy with care taken every
time i issue an apt-get install. This machine's been mostly for
testing as some of its drives don't play along with the mobo's BIOS so
i'll have to postpone ZFS for the moment and stick to RAID5 once i
replace those drives. Later it'll be my home server.
* Another 1 is a VPS, running Debian stable.
* The other 1 is my work laptop which soon will run some other linux
instead of the current ubuntu (which i dislike).

I've been a regular user for probably around 10 years, alergic to
behemoth DEs, not alergic to CLI or compiling stuff from source when
even Sid is way behind, considering Slackware, Gentoo and/or LFS to
try out new stuff, learn stuff and find good replacements for Debian
(i'm not a distro-hoper, but that will very likely change). Yes,
Devuan will be on that list. :) I'm also considering OpenBSD and
OpenIndiana, assuming i have time to tinker.

I have a lot of curiosity and too little time, but i'll help if i can.

I'm here because i want choice and i like stuff to be modular and
open, not closed and monolithic (unless we're talking about Clarke's
2001).

Cheers,
Nuno

Luke, maybe you should join #debianfork IRC and as him there?

2015-02-18 Thread Gravis
Luke, I removed the edit because it was completely out of place.  It was a
list of links and you added a huge line of text to a single entry.
without-systemd.org is not directly linked to Devuan, so dont hold it
against the project.

- Gravis

 TRIOS is a great effort. I personally use zfs in production and approve their 
 technical choices including openrc which I believe to be a good candidate for 
 Devuan's future too.

Jaromil,

Thank you and all the others for friendly words of support.
Cooperation is of course possible and desirable.
When the time comes for Devuan to offer packages of the same functionality that 
is already provided by Adam Borowski,
we will gladly try TRIOS version with devuan packages.

@64/32 bit
The reason why we offer only 64-bit TRIOS is zfs .. on 32-bit linux kernel, zfs 
is unstable:

Best regards,
Dragan

If I understand correctly, this ^^ means the repository indexes aren't

Re: [Dng] Towards systemd-free packages

2015-02-18 Thread hellekin
Volunteers for package adoption can now head to the
[devuan-maintainers][0] project.  The [wiki][1] gives instructions to
follow for adopting a package from the current [list of base
packages][2] that jaromil posted earlier.

If you need anything, try #devuan first.
