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.

Both the "PORT" and the "abort" (aka "race condition in signal handler")
bugs have been fixed in December 96 / January 97 (netstd-2.09 and above).
I also sent these patches to the Debian wu-ftpd maintainer (wu-ftpd-2.4-27
contains these patches).


Thanks,
