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.

Re: "Social Contract" - final pass

From: Christian Schwarz <schwarz@monet.m.isar.de>
I agree this is sub-optimal, but it is unfortunately required for a number
of programs currently in the distribution. We should discourage people from
making this restriction.

We might take this up with the authors concerned. Qmail (djb), Ncurses (eric),
what other programs?

	Thanks
