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.

We can make it a little sophisticated and sort in categories AND shuffle.

Sites with very good connectivity get into the first group
ftp.<country>.debian.org 

Sites with good connectivity go into the second:
ftp2.<country>.debian.org

Sites with small pipes go into the third:
ftp-backup.<country>.debian.org

Within those groups we could shuffle without causing problems.

I know that the above names are not very good, but I don't have
any better idea at this moment.
