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 don't like this so far - after everything else we say about freedom
it would be shooting ourselves in the foot. This topic has been argued
to death on comp.os.linux.advocacy - my personal take is that it does
not matter if someone derives a system with lots of non-free stuff as
long as there continues to be a free system and the possibility of
competition.

How do others feel?
