The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Re: ftp.debian.org

  Matthew>  Absolutly NOTHING has changed here....

Something must have changed. I have been mirroring for months. The last few
months using the "buster" idendity. So did the mirror program tonight. This
morning I saw that files were deleted. OK.  But this morning I ftp'ed to
ftp.debian.org. Using "buster", all I got is _one_ directory ftpadmin. Here
is what I mean, from the logfile of mirror:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
package=Debian ftp.debian.org:/debian -> /mirror/debian
Got ftpadmin/.bash_history 104
Got ftpadmin/.pinerc 5433
Got ftpadmin/.addressbook 0
Got ftpadmin/.addressbook.lu 1257
unlink /mirror/debian/project/experimental/elf/elf-ncurses-1.9.4-1.deb
unlink /mirror/debian/project/experimental/elf/elf-ncurses-1.9.4-1.diff.gz
unlink /mirror/debian/project/experimental/elf/elf-x11r6lib-3.1.2-1.deb     
[... and so it continues forever, stating how it deleted files.] 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The very same logfile has the entries for the days prior to last nigt:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
package=Debian ftp.debian.org:/debian -> /mirror/debian
Got ls-laR 454938

package=Debian ftp.debian.org:/debian -> /mirror/debian
Pausing between retries
Cannot connect, skipping package
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

But using "ftp", ie anonymous, I can access the entire debian archive. Which
is what I used to get from ftp.debian.org as "buster". I guess there is no
point arguing. I didn't touch my mirror setup, and you say you didn't fiddle
with ftp.debian.org. Oh well. Shit happens, and so it did tonight.
