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.

Come on guys, I think I have to agree with Mike.  Am I the only one who 
took the time out to send a simple e-mail.  I don't have a MIPS machine, 
but that wasn't what he was asking, he wanted to give his 
mini-distribution to one of the major players.  We would get the 
developers for it once it was Debian'anized.  All the people who use MIPS 
might even come over since there seems to be no major distribution for MIPS.

I agree, all Mike was asking was for us to jot down a small e-mail and 
tell him why he should choose Debian.

A few things you might want to mention.

	How easy it is to role your packages the debian way, he likes the 
	fact that he has customized his intel system to his personal 
	needs, tell him that this can easily be done with Debian and how.

	Someone should explan to him the philisophical differences b/w 
	Debian and Red Hat to him better than I could.  He seems to think 
	that b/c Red Hat distributes thing like RPM under the GPL, it's a 
	pretty "free" distribution.

	He seems to like Chinese food, can't hurt to recomend good places 
	to eat it if he is every any place. :-)
