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.

A Mac, an Amiga, and a VME machine would likely need different 68k
kernels; and the next five 68k platforms for which Linux ports appear
would likely need five other kernels, or so it seems to me.  Is it
likely, though, that the bulk of the application binaries would run on
all of them?  How about differences between the various processors
in the m86k family?  Would/does gcc-68k produce code which will run
on 68000, 68030, 68032, 68040, 68XYZ?

If the answer to any of these questions is "no", is "m68k" a good
architecture designator?
