Systemd-Free Devuan Announces Its First Stable Release Candidate 'Jessie' 1.0.0
Found on Slashdot on Saturday, 22 April 2017
Devuan 1.0.0-RC is announced, following its beta 2 release last year. The Debian fork that spawned over systemd controversy is reaching stability and plans long-term support.
"Dear Init Freedom Lovers," begins the announcement, "Once again the Veteran Unix Admins salute you!"
Hopefully Poettering will soon fork off into SystemdOS and let the rest return to a world where there is no "assimilate everything" daemon in your operating system.
