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 wouldn't omit ftp.debian.org, it seems wrong to leave out the
"central" server. (Someone may want to check it to see if their mirror
has the latest version, or they may wish to use it if the german sites
are down.)  Are there mirrors in other german-speaking countries?
Austria or Switzerland? They should be listed too.

I checked dselect 1.4, the messages are in English. (I set LANG to 'de'
- this will change the output of tar --help, so I assume it is the
right environment var. to change.)

This should be on the list of things to do for 2.0 - If we are going
to announce Debian in German, French, Italian, etc, we need to make it
possible to install in the respective languages.
