The @artixlinux.org devs were among the first ones to package #XLibre besides @openmandriva.org.web.brid.gy and the support announcement of devuan.org. Artix and Devuan have at least one thing in common: Init Freedom www.devuan.org/os/init-free.... This we like to celebrate, and say thank you Artix!

First batch of official ISOs for 2025 is out!
