Re: [DNG] Devuan ASCII 2.0.0 stable
Hello Devuan, I am a sysadmin, mostly deploying debian since many years. I just came across devuan for the first time and I wanted to thank you for the great work! I already switched to devuan on some systems and I very much agree with the idea of init freedom. It makes a lot of sense to me. I could never really understand why debian took another road. Thanks again!

Take it from someone who was employed at VA Linux Systems during and after the time we acquired Andover.net (Slashdot's itty-bitty corporate entity): Slashdot was _always_ a poster child for Sturgeon's Law, overwhelmingly a place for bored pseudonymous nobodies to exercise poor impulse control and the maturity of frat boys.

[DNG] Devuan ASCII 2.0.0 stable
Dear Init Freedom Lovers Once again the Veteran Unix Admins salute you! We are happy to announce that Devuan GNU+Linux 2.0 ASCII Stable is finally available. Devuan is a GNU+Linux distribution committed to providing a universal, stable, dependable, free software operating system that uses and promotes alternatives to systemd and its components. Devuan 2.0 ASCII runs on several architectures. Installer CD and DVD ISOs, as well as desktop-live and minimal-live ISOs, are available for i386 and amd64. Ready-to-use images can be downloaded for a number of ARM platforms and SOCs, including Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, OrangePi, BananaPi, OLinuXino, Cubieboard, Nokia and Motorola mobile phones, and several Chromebooks, as well as for Virtualbox/QEMU/Vagrant. The Devuan 2.0 ASCII installer ISOs offer a variety of Desktop Environments including Xfce, KDE, MATE, Cinnamon, LXQt, with others available post-install. The expert install mode now offers a choice of either SysVinit or OpenRC as init system. In addition, there are options for "Console productivity" with hundreds of CLI and TUI utils, as well as a minimal base system ideal for servers. The minimal-live image provides a full-featured console-based system with a particular focus on accessibility. The desktop-live images are the recommended option for people wanting to explore and easily install Devuan 2.0 ASCII Stable, and also for the press and those interested in reviewing the default Xfce desktop. The efforts of Devuan developers are now focused on the third Devuan release codenamed Beowulf (Planet nr. 38086). Preliminary installer images should be ready for testing soon. We would like to thank the entire Devuan community for the continued support, feedback, and collaboration. ## Download Devuan 2.0 ASCII images are available for download at: http://files.devuan.org/devuan_ascii/ and from the ISO mirrors listed at: http://devuan.org/get-devuan The latter URL also includes information about the official Devuan package repositories. ## Release Notes Devuan 2.0 Stable Release notes include brief installation and upgrading instructions, as well information on desktop session management with the introduction of eudev and elogind, and on the new mirror network accessible through "deb.devuan.org".
