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.

Perhaps we could make a snapshot of the debian file area on 
master every week? Keep the backups tapes organized and we will be able
to retrieve previous version easily if needed.

This would be an immediate solution using conventional means routinely
done by administrative personal.

We could get more advanced by having a tape continually available
onto which all files which are replaced are written.
