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.

None of them err except in times when they make a mistake, during which they 
cease to be skilled artists.

Suppose that we just calmly consider whether any of these was such as
you have described. Will not the goods professors, render advice on issues
according to some some standard which is the knowledge of their field.
And is not always the case that those knowledgable agree with each other
on all issues of the field, and disagree perhaps in just a few and not on 
all aspects. And even when disagreable, are they not able to convince one
another in on admitted principles, for these artists disagree in few 
issues only and never disagree in all and everything.

Skilled artists are able to agree with one another on most issues, 
and accordingly they render advice in what their name implies.
Though they are commonly said to err, and I adopted the common mode of
speaking. But to be perfectly accurate, since you are such a lover of
accuracy, we should rather say that knowlegable builders and professors are
unerring and, being unerring, always provide good advise. And therefore, as 
I said at first and now repeat, we should head to the advice of those who 
know and not to the advice of the many.
