My thoughts:
I agree that Maui is fantastic. I've been a Linux user for 15 yeras. I've always used Debian Stable based distros and never considered Ubuntu. I heard far to many reports that Ubuntu was unstable. Maui was the first distro to ever get me to switch to a Ubuntu base. Its fantastic. Everything has just worked for me and I have found Maui to be more reliable than Debian Stable. So for me Maui is easier to use, is more reliable, and due to its Ubuntu base has a greater software pool, with more up to date software than Debian Stable. Why on earth would I ever switch to Netrunner or go back to any Debian based distro? I have found the beauty of Ubuntu. I think people used to a Ubuntu base will agree. So I do not think Netrunner will gain any exMint users and it will only get a few Maui refugees. Netrunner will only be what it is now.
However, if there is enough people on the forum with the interest and skills to continue Maui, I would love to see that happen. Unfortunately, that is not me. So I will move on to Kubuntu or Neon when Maui is done.
