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.

forming a core development team

A number of people have suggested the formation of a small core team to
continue the development of Debian using a unified source tree and what
appears to me to be a somewhat-more-closed development model.

I frankly don't think you can carry it off without becoming at least a
semi-commercial distribution, because with even a group as large as 15
people, that's going to be a big job for each member, and you're going
to end up having to pay people. Nor do I think you have the critical mass
to get started.

However, that's not a reason to stop you, and sometimes I'm surprised by
things I thought would not work. I'd be happy to see such a core group
split off to work on these ideas. If we can get an exchange of patches
between the core group and package maintainers working under the current
Debian paradigm, that would be even better.

	Thanks
