But. But, but...

I was assured by all the journalists and all the practical people that
Devuan was just a bluff by greybeard bragadoccios, and would never
result in a stable distribution.

Now I'm going to need to email my local LUG and my Publishers Mailing
List and tell them that there's a simple to install and admin Linux
with a reasonable architecture. All the work you guys make me do!

Hi Hleb,

we have a workflow in place to contribute packages, which is briefly
explained here:

Anyone is more than welcome to contribute patches or new sanitised
packages following that workflow. Just please double-check since some

Thanks a lot for your effort on this release, jessie. I'm really
looking forward to the next, ascii. I will definitely be part of the

PS.  Note about ASCII . . . In the list of minor planets -

[DNG] Devuan Jessie 1.0.0 stable LTS

2017-05-25 Thread Veteran Unix Admins

Dear Init Freedom Lovers,

Once again the Veteran Unix Admins salute you!

Many of you might remember November 2014 when we announced that
we were going to fork Debian. Well, we have done exactly that. It
has been a long process, but now over two years later, we proudly
present Devuan Jessie 1.0.0 Stable.

There have been no significant bug reports since Devuan Jessie
RC2 was announced only three weeks ago and the list of release
critical bugs is now empty. So finally Devuan Jessie Stable is
ready for release!  As promised, this will also be a
Long-Term-Support (LTS) release. Our team will participate in
providing patches, security updates, and release upgrades beyond
the planned lifespan of Debian Jessie.

A lot of appreciation has been coming our way in the last few
weeks.  And now with this Stable release we anticipate that even
the most skeptical among private and enterprise users will
finally be ready to jump on the Devuan train.

Devuan Jessie 1.0.0 Stable is a major milestone in the new path
drawn by the Devuan project and its development has provided an
opportunity to lay down a strong foundation for the Devuan
community. In the last two years we have put in place a powerful
infrastructure to support the development and growth of Devuan,
which now includes:

- Source management 
- Continuous integration 
- Bug tracking 
- User forum 
- Package statistics and analysis 

During the Jessie release cycle we have strenghtened and
optimised these services and also migrated to more powerful
hardware to cope with the increased loads we have experienced.

The ambitious plan to provide a no-nonsense universal GNU+Linux
distribution does not stop here - it extends beyond this release.

Our main development efforts will now turn to Devuan ASCII (Minor
Planet #3568), which will be the next stable release. We are
confident that the preliminary ASCII ISOs could be available for
testing soon. Beyond ASCII - the saga of Beowulf (Minor Planet
#38086) appropriately mirrors the path we have taken.  :^)

Please find below instructions to try out or install Devuan
Jessie 1.0.0 Stable on your computer and to upgrade from Debian
7 (Wheezy) or Debian 8 (Jessie). If you are already using Devuan
Jessie RC2, a simple `apt-get update && apt-get upgrade` will be
enough to get the latest updates.


## Download (for new installs)

Official Devuan images are distributed via the website


To ease the load on our bandwidth we kindly ask you to use one of
the following mirrors

- rsync: mirror.leaseweb.com::devuan
- rsync: ftp.nluug.nl::devuan
- rsync: mirror.alpix.eu::devuan

Note: For off-line installations we recommend using the DVD image
or the live images, not the /installer-iso images. For on-line
installations please use the NETINST images.

(The use of the CD image is not recommended, since the iso does
not contain enough applications to make it useful in any off-line
circumstance.)

All files offered for download come with their SHA256 hash to
check the integrity (either in the `SHA256SUMS` or in the .sha
files) and with a cryptographic signature made using GnuPG by one
of the Devuan developers in charge of the build, included as .asc
file.

An understanding of Devuan's script-friendly file naming scheme and
directory structure will help you find what you need:


## Upgrade (for existing installations)

Devuan Jessie Stable can be adopted as a flawless upgrade path from
both Debian 7 (Wheezy) and Debian 8 (Jessie). This is a main goal for
the Devuan Jessie stable release and has proven to be a very stable
operation every time it has been performed. Detailed installation and
upgrade instructions are available including translations:

```
deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie  main
deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-updates  main
deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-security main
