Een Debian-variant met een keuze tussen het systemd en sysvinit systeem...
dat is "Dev One", geschreven Devuan!
Als iemand het verschil tussen systemd en sysvinit kent, aarzel niet om het
ons duidelijker te maken!

[1]Don't panic and keep forking Debian™! :^) Once upon a time there
was a Debian fork

Dear Init-Freedom lovers, the Veteran Unix Admin collective salutes
you!
__________________________________________________________________
Our project is called "Devuan".
Devuan is spelled in Italian and it is pronounced just like "DevOne" in
English.
Devuan developers can be reached with an e-mail to onelove at devuan
dot org.
OK guys, nevermind the names, but what's the plan?
Have you tried to opt-out of the systemd change in Debian and stay with
sysvinit, or whatever other init you prefer? You will quickly notice
that is not a matter of choosing packages and in fact Debian offers no
choice.
We want freedom to choose.
Our intention in short: we plan to have a well stable, production ready
fork of Debian in place about the time Jessie will come out: we will
keep everything intact, just avoid to be locked in the overwhelming web
of dependencies of systemd.
This plan is ambitious, but feasible in our opinion - and we are
[3]accepting donations for it.
Curious about how is going? read the latest tri-mestral [4]developer's
update (22 December 2014) and the [5]almost weekly Devuan community
news. You can also [6]follow Devuan on Twitter and participate to our
[7]discussion mailinglist.
Can't wait to be involved? join the development platform, here is our
[8]code repository.
Or in case you are an artist [9]propose a design for Devuan, we will
choose one soon.
What Devuan should be then? is it really a fork?
This is just the start of a process, as bold as it sounds to call it a
fork of Debian. This exodus is ultimately being a relief for some of us
and should lead to the creation a peaceful space for work we are well
able to do. To help with this adventure and its growth, we ask you to
get involved, but also to [10]donate money so that we can cover the
costs of setting the new infrastructure in place, but also support
independent projects that can help us to achieve Init Freedom.
Devuan aims to be a base distribution whose mission is protect the
freedom of its community of users and developers. Its priority is to
enable diversity, interoperability and backward compatibility for
existing Debian users and downstream distributions willing to preserve
Init freedom.
Devuan will derive its own installer and package repositories from
Debian, modifying them where necessary, with the main goals of
achieving minimalism and Init Freedom. Our objective for the spring of
2015 is that users will be able to switch from Debian 7 to Devuan 1
smoothly, as if they would dist-upgrade to Jessie, and start using our
package repositories.
Devuan will make an effort to rebuild an infrastructure similar to
Debian, but will also take the opportunity to innovate some of its
practices. Devuan developers look at this project as a fresh new start
for a community of interested people and do not intend to vexate any
participant with hierarchy and bureaucracy beyond real cases of
emergency. We are well conscious this is possible for us mostly because
of starting small again; we will do our best to not repeat the same
mistakes and we welcome all Debian Developers willing to join us on
this route.
The Devuan distribution will make an effort to improve the relationship
with both upstream and downstream and, particularly in its gestational
phase, will do its best to accomodate needs of those downstream
distributions willing to adopt it as base. We look forward to
statements of interest from such distributions, as well involvement in
this planning phase.
Devuan will do its best to stay minimal and abide to the UNIX
philosophy of "doing one thing and doing it well". Devuan perceives
itself not as an end product, but a starting point for developers, a
viable base for sysadmins and a stable tool for people who have
experience of Debian. Devuan will never compromise for more efficiency
at the cost of the the freedom of its users, rather than leave such
concerns to the independent choices made by downstream developers.
If you need Devuan, then join it and support it now!
