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.

Actually, I don't believe things are nearly so bad as all that.  The
actual situation is as follows:

About a month ago, I took a job working for Apple to do a particularly
high-pressure port of GDB for the upcoming Rhapsody release.  Also at
Apple, I met up with Gilbert Coville (the MkLinux manager), and began
working seriously on the Debian/PPC port, with the hope of beating the
Red Hat release date and converting the in-house MkLinux development
team over to Debian.

Since I was temporarily stuck with poor network connectivity to my
primary E-mail machine, and so that I would have more time to spend on
my programming work (both on Debian and on GDB), I temporarily stopped
reading the public Debian mailing lists, relying on the bug tracking
mechanism to keep me up-to-date.

Unfortunately, for some reason I have yet to determine, I haven't been
getting copies sent to me of bugs filed against dpkg sent to me, so I
didn't know of the problems until I started catching up on
debian-devel earlier this afternoon.  I'll be fixing the bugs and
uploading a point release shortly, with the next round of significant
changes scheduled for a couple of weeks from now.

I continue to welcome any patch files and other contributions people
might be willing to make to dpkg.  If anyone is looking for a way to
help, contact me and I'd be happy to suggest something.

Thanks,
 - Klee
