Netrunner Debian is likely for more experienced users, since it lacks ppas, no simple driver manager, etc. but still is capable of doing a modern desktop via our own Plasma packages. Since we deliberatly chose "Stable", its arguably the slowest moving target. That is why we also start with offering a Core version, because it is suited for different usescases, like e.g. computers who just need an easy GUI for administration once in a while but may be used otherwise more for server oriented tasks instead.

Netrunner will likely expand in that direction with even more specialized usescases and tailored ISOs around that.

Maui is arguably easier since Ubuntu goodies, hence preferred by users new to Linux, users who like the Ubuntu benefits, eventually because of Snappy packages, etc.

Maui=everyday desktop home users

Netrunner=more specialized or restrcited usescases, could be good for mum and dad scenarious who dont even need ppas or care for slightly older package versions
