This is a late response, but persons seem to keep confusing the two mailing-lists.

not a problem.
At first, I too thought that he was referring to THIS mailing-list, "Arm-netbook". But considering that David's message (as retained below) ends up obviously focusing on Devuan and Debian, it seems that he is, even at the start of his message, talking of a mailing-list for Devuan.
I saw some of the most cordial behaviour that I have had the privilege to witness on a mailing list from most of (all?) the members!
huh. despite quite a lot of "venting", that's really appreciated to hear.
(My comment above, fits here too.)
I really believe that they will meet with success in their toiling.

I really think that Devuan is just taking an obvious short cut in the above case. That is to say, if devuan and debian devs got together to merge then devuan would get support for system and debian would support other inits. I do not and did not see any resentment to debian on the list by the devuan devs.
the devuan team have a really nice team spirit,
