If I had to change anything on the table, a release date column would be great.

Nice idea - but a lot of effort to implement and to to keep correct over time...... you can glean the info from the links provided in most cases..............

Can you tell me what must we do to have DevuanPup Distro included in this list?

Only seems to be a BETA release so far - is this correct?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/devuan ... edalus/64/

Best description is at:

What is the Package Manager? PPM?

(Interesting that the LXDE version seems to be slightly smaller than the base version??)

p.s. I downloaded what appears to be the base version DevuanPup_10.0_beta_05.iso and only got a black screen with a cursor - and xwin jwm did not work.....
I included all the .sfs from the .iso - adrv, bdrv, fdrv, ydrv, zdrv.....
I ran checkdeps -system from the console and saw many missing dependencies - mainly regarding xfce which was somewhat surprising.

[Later] then tried DevuanPup_10.0_LXDE_beta_05.iso which did boot to a desktop - seems like PPM is not included and the Package Manager is APT/Synaptic?
