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.

People, BEFORE you all rush off and start working on that,
PLEASE take a CLOSE look at how the FreeBSD (or almost all *BSD systems
for that matter) have solved this. Those people have put a lot of thought
and work in those mechanisms. 

We don't need to reinvent the weel, we only need to pick it up and adapt
it so that it fits us.
