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.

I agree with both of the above.  The most useful questions in the last 
(current) poll seemed to be the most general ones.  Questions on specific
appointments/elections provided N solutions, almost tempting the reader to
imagine M additional solutions which are not offered, and then leaving
him with the unpleasant option of saying "No choice" or choosing an 
option he thinks is non-optimum.  This is by no means a criticism 
of the vote, just a note on human reactions, which are non-linear, if
not just plain weird.  

(This is precisely why it's perfectly logical to prefer to "solve 
technical issues".)
