The Devuan maintainers guide is at https://git.devuan.org/devuan/documentation/src/branch/master/maintainers I would be happy to guide you through the process. The good news is that you don't have to do each architecture separately as the production build process takes care of that. Devuan is relatively short of person-power to fork new packages, so it may well be a while before anybody feels able to take anything extra on. And it is better to have somebody maintaining who actually makes use of the package. Best wishes Mark
