Yes, it is a category and no, I didn't miss that point. |
| 12 |
|

The point though is that the way this fork was being announced is quite |
| 14 |
simple the worst way to do it. The announcement was not signed by any |
| 15 |
name and just made by someone named "Majordomo Debianfork." Not that's |
| 16 |
why I do call a bad way to start such a project and building trust. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Then they are already asking for donations. Yes, of course such a |
| 19 |
project has the need for donations, true. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
But would you spend someone money where you've got no clue whom you are |
| 22 |
giving it? I won't. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
So until they are going to publish a list of names about who's behind |
| 25 |
this project I for myself am just going to think about it as a more or |
| 26 |
less nice reminder to the Debian community about that a nother fork with |
| 27 |
the implicit goal to eliminate Systemd would quite quickly gain much |
| 28 |
momentum and speed. The goal of such a prank? To make the people think |
| 29 |
about it and change their opinion that this would not happen. |

Well, we are for sure going to see sooner or later, what's the real deal |
| 32 |
about Devuan. |
