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.

The only change allowed to an upstream source package is renaming the
top level directory.  If diffs have been applied, even if they do not
originate with Debian, they should be part of the .diff.gz.

The get-orig-source target in programmer's 3.2.1 is currently
optional.  Perhaps it should be made mandatory?
