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.

Continuous Releases?

Just one other wild thought that came to me:

How about not having release dates at all? If a developer feels his
package is ready for stable then he should upload it into stable
which submits the package to our beta-testing group. If they approve it
then it will be available in stable.

That avoids all the deadline problems and puts the responsibility for
getting the package out on the quality of the work the maintainer did.

The review process will be an incentive for better testing on the part of
the maintainer. Components (such as the X Server) would not defer the
release of other important components that are not related into stable.

And if this process gets established and working well (it probably needs 
some time until the testing team + beta testers get some routine in
evaluating packages) we will be able to provide stable releases faster
than other distributions.
