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 should be asking orselves if "dpkg" is Debian. We have a good
distribution, and changing package managers will not change that.
We will have to give up a few of our present goals - for example
we should be distributing the system as a suite of packages that all
work with each other and are upgraded all at once, rather than upgrading
a piece here and a piece there while we cross our fingers and hope the
dependencies are right. That's the main thing we sacrafice in giving
up dpkg. However, we give up a lot of headaches at the same time.
