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.

The time window for that happening is or should be very, very small.
If you happen to hit it anyway, it can be fixed by having Guy move
the package to rex by hand.

You might want to look at it like this: All uploads are untested,
so they must go into unstable, whatever that happens to be at the
time. The very few exceptions can be handled specially.
