I know it might seem a silly comment, but building and maintaining an
independent development infrastructure actually requires a
considerable amount of energy and time (and money). So I am not
surprised if a distro might decide to cut on the infra and focus only
on the development.

Nevertheless, I am firmly convinced that achieving infrastructural
independence (as Devuan has done in these years, thanks to the support
of many volunteers and donors) is the only way to guarantee a higher
success probability to a project. But for some reason this message
seems to be a hard one to convey to users and enthusiasts :-)
