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.

How will the election work?  My guess is that all developers will
select their favorite 8 candidates and send mail to ... ?

The volunteer would then have some clever procmail rule
automatically count the votes and the results would be posted to
debian-private?  How will the vote counts be verified?  What will
the "official" voting period be (i.e. 24 hours, 48 hours)?

I'd be willing to set up a procmail rule that would grab messages
sent to me (somehow) with a keyword in the subject and a
formatted body.  Perhaps a voting form:

<candidate>:y
<candidate>:
<candidate>:y

Should there be a y count of exactly 8 in order to validate the
ballot?  Should these be pgpsigned to validate the sender is a
developer (I'll need an up to date key ring file)?  I could have
the mechanism set up in advance and approved prior to the
election if warranted.

Let me know.

Thanks
