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.

I thought that too the other day. Changing the - to a _ in an upstream
filename is inelegant as we change what someone else had chosen, for his or
her reasons, and what the rest of the world has become used to. 

Either way, it's more important to get 1.1 out of the door with as many bugs
fixed as possible. We're doing well, lads (sorry Susan :-).
