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 second that. There are lots of people out there waiting for the new
release and I don't see any good reasons for delaying the release. (There
will be new versions of other significant programs coming out in the next
months and we won't get a single release finished if we wait for
everything.)

I think we should change the policy of releasing new versions. We should
release "stable" versions more often (how about 6 weeks) with tested
packages (say being uploaded for 3 weeks). Then we would propably also get
more feedback from non-developer people. 

Just my 2 cents,

Chris
