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 think at some point that some Debian communications will have to get
beyond mailing lists.  I'm not sure we're there yet, but I'd have to agree 
that the volume of mail is somewhat intrusive (she said with guilt).

I believe that the mailing lists could be made less intrusive by
-- running MHonArc on the lists once every N hours (6?), then
-- posting the output to the WWW, then
-- incrementing a search engine over the newly archived material, and
-- providing a search engine interface to the mail archive on the WWW.

That way, one has the option of responding immediately if 
a message comes up on a topic of immediate interest (or where you can 
offer a suggestion right away), and deleting other messages, with the
knowledge that he can have access to the wealth of data in the mailing
lists if/when he needs it.
