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.

Re: CVS

Indeed.  Cygnus uses CVS heavily, but from our experience, I'm not
sure it would help the debian project at all.  For the kind of
version-retrieval people are talking about, the Plan9 timed-filesystem
stuff would seem more on target -- assuming you have nigh-infinite
WORM diskspace...

And master just doesn't have the connectivity to make it practical to
use remotely for this kind of thing.  For our cross-country use of CVS
(using the kerberos support and encryption of course :-) we finally
got a second BBNplanet line in the california office - not for
bandwidth, but for reliability.  Not to criticize our hosts at
i-connect, but from here, I go through Alternet (flaky) to maewest
(bottleneck) and then through a few more hops.  Interactive CVS use
requires caviar-level connectivity.

(Again, I haven't seen exactly *what* FreeBSD is doing with remote
cvs.  But it can't be the obvious thing, namely "one big tree with
sources".  It would just be too unpleasant to use.)
