I hadn't heard about Exe yet. I believe Devuan have shown interest in learning more about gNewSense's build process in the past. Unfortunately we never hooked up with each other. If the Exe team feel like there's something to gain from gNewSense, it might make more sense to see how we can add the missing bit to Devuan. > I'd like to help out with a few packages that I love, but don't think I have > the time to be much more than a user for at least the next six months. If you're interested in specific packages, you can also help upstream, be it Debian or the original maintainer(s). (Debian's not on the free distro list, but nevertheless hugely important to free software.) And there's varying degrees of involvement, e.g. testing new versions, reporting or triaging bugs, packaging, developing or even just pointing people to this cool software that you use and showing them how to get started. _______________________________________________ gNewSense-users mailing list gNewSense-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-users
