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.

Yes, you're correct.

Except for the case when we have a real read-only media like
CD-ROM.

wn can be made to work either way.  We just need to decide on
whether to go with read-only /usr.  My two cents would go with
read-only.

I've also confirmed that we can transparently handle compressed
html pages.  We only need to agree to standardized on the
compressed file name.  For example, if we start with wn.html, the
compressed version is named wn.html.gz.  Same model as for man
pages.
