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.

CVS

I'm not convinced that CVS offers us much more than we have at the
moment.

It is claimed that CVS is a way to get a complete buildable source
tree.  However, in fact we already have the mechanisms in place for a
complete buildable source tree.  The new source format should make it
possible for us to rebuild the whole distribution from source.  When
I'm back on the project with more time to spend on it I intend to try
this.

CVS is not, I think, an appropriate tool for us.  In particular, CVS
makes assumptions about the coherence, trustworthiness and so forth
about the developers that probably aren't true for Debian.  I get the
impression that FreeBSD's development is done by a smaller, tighter
group of people than ours.

I think our packaged source approach is a good one, and we should keep
it.

If there is a requirement for version control I think this should be
done by keeping appropriate diffs or whatever on the master site.

Ian.
