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.

Thanks.  I'm not convinced that all the technical arguments have been
resolved yet, and I'd rather we got to something more closely
resembling a consensus.

I found it was causing confusion in (for example) the bug tracking
system (which only had a single Version field from the start).
Package maintainers (mostly) understand it well enough, but the users
are somewhat different ...

*wry smile*.

In this particular instance I didn't know that I was going to have the
ultimate say on it; if so I might have been a little more restrained
in my arguments.  I'm still open to being convinced that there is a
consensus in favour of Bill's ideas here, but I don't see that
consensus now.

Ian.
