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.

I've never been in favor of popularity polls deciding technical issues.
(Look what kind of president it produces)
Seems to me that the proper way to prioritize testing should be based on
the technical needs of the system. We already have these priorities for
packages in the system and it is my intention to use these priorities as
testing priorities as well. OK?
