From Distrowatch.com: After approximately two years in development, the Devuan GNU+Linux project has announced the first stable release of the Devuan distribution. Devuan is a fork of Debian with the SysV init software used in place of Debian's systemd package. Services which rely on systemd to function have similarly been replaced with other software offering equivalent functionality. "Many of you might remember November 2014 when we announced that we were going to fork Debian. Well, we have done exactly that. It has been a long process, but now over two years later, we proudly present Devuan 1.0.0. There have been no significant bug reports since RC2 was announced only three weeks ago and the list of release critical bugs is now empty. As promised, this will also be a long-term support (LTS) release. Our team will participate in providing patches, security updates and release upgrades beyond the planned lifespan of Debian 'Jessie'." Additional information can be found in the release announcement. The Devuan torrent file contains all available installation media, but most torrent clients will allow users to select specific files to download.
