The antiX Linux project announced version 17 of its distribution:
The developers of the Debian-based antiX GNU/Linux distribution announced the release of antiX 17, dubbed "Heather Heyer" and based on the Debian GNU/Linux 9.2 "Stretch" operating system.
antiX 17 follows the trend of previous versions to offer users an operating system that does not include the widely used systemd init system. With this release, Gentoo's eudev device file manager for the Linux kernel is used by default instead of udev.
Eudev is a fork of udev, made by the Gentoo project to avoid dependency on systemd.

If you are referring to AntiX, it is not related to Devuan. It's being on its 17th release, while Devuan is on its first, should be a clue.
If you are referring to Void, it's also older than and not related to Devuan. Void may not have drawn as much publicity as Devuan, but it seems to be in a more advanced state than Devuan, as everything works on it except gnome, which I would consider a feature. Even KDE is supposed to work, according to their web site.
