Hi.
I wanted to check the current list of init systems supported by Devuan,
so I
went to the website to find out.
I noticed the prominent motto "init freedom - watch your first step!"
there,
and wonder whether this is an entirely positive thing for new visitors
to the
Devuan world to see?
It could easily, I think, be taken to mean "be careful about taking a
first
step in an unknown direction" (which is what Devuan is for a newcomer),
and
could possibly make some people decide "oh, I'm not so sure about this;
maybe
not, after all".
I'm sure there can be some more positive phrase we can use about init
freedom,
to emphasise what it _gives_ people, not to emphasise being cautious
about the
unknown.
Thoughts / opinions?
Antony.
Here is a history lesson that should not be forgotten:

Eroding history is the first step down a slippery slope to the end of
freedom.
