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.

Constituting is getting the Bod assembled and providing some
framework for making initial decisions. We certainly do not know
all the issues involved. It will take awhile until we are
certain how a "Director" operates and how to make decisions
in a good way.

Certainly we should have a vote on the project leader at some point. But
right now the Bod is not functional at all and it would be chaos not to 
have a someone knowledgeable like you around at least for the initial
period. You are certainly not a lame duck but very important to the
process of getting the Bod functioning.
