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 guess this is a reasonable compromise. So code freeze should occur 
each Nov. 1st, Feb. 1st, etc.
	I also only partly agree with the fact that code freeze & new 
releases introduce overhead, 'cos it forces every maintainer to correct 
the pending bugs, so it's "positive overhead"... _(:
