I've asked Devuan to post here a while ago. It seems that it was stuck
in the moderation queue. Despite various things[1] I've noticed "assume
people mean well" worked quite well. I don't participate in their
mailing list anymore as the atmosphere is (was?) toxic. I believe we're
sometimes too aggressive in our replies/communication.

Regarding Devuan: They've made something which provides a logind API
with ConsoleKit2 as a backend. See https://github.com/dimkr/LoginKit.
