I don't think the order means much... at least not further than the very
first derivatives.

That said the addition of Devuan was made by Roland Mas so I'll let him
decide whether it should stay or not. I'm not a huge fan of that project
and it seems to not have delivered much.  But we have put explanations
about our interrogation in the text so it's not a problem either to keep
it for now...

I don't think we want to list all derivatives. Mainly those of generic
interest... SteamOS can be interesting but I'm not sure about Trisquel
and Skolinux.
