My suggestions ,
#> release , desktop-live iso for xfce , kde , gnome and mate.
#> release , community desktop-live iso for i3 , openbox and awesom.
#> add choose-init option to desktop-live  installer.
#> add one click option to download iso on devuan.org/get-devuan .

Feel free to prepare those isos and submit them to Devuan for inclusion.

Re: new desktop-live iso

what about installer and get-devuan page?

The desktop-live installer - refractainstaller - rsyncs the running live system.  It cannot add anything directly during installation.  You could install another init option in the live-environment and then install the modified version.  But if switching init requires a reboot that won't work.  This from the readme:

Refracta Installer will install the operating system to hard drive from
a running live-CD or live-USB session. The running system will be copied
exactly - any changes you make to the running system, including desktop
preferences, configuration changes, or added software will be copied to
the installed system.

As to the get-devuan page . . . there is no one-size-fits-all iso.  Devuan is about CHOICE.

There is a point in the installer, right before it installs the bootloader, where you could chroot into the installed system and make changes (such as installing openrc.) I haven't tried it, but it should work.
