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 looked at it, and it seems a little too basic to me.  Ioannis (and
others), could you look at the URL above, and see if that's the kind of
thing that you wanted.  I wanted to write something a little more
detailed.  I wanted to include such things as explanation of conffile
handling, the maintainer scripts, how to build a package without debmake,
etc.  Let me know if I need to do this.  Otherwise, I might want to write
some of the docs Jaldhar mentioned in his other post.  It probably should
be Christian's decision at the end, since he is the Policy Manager
