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: contrib/non-free policy

It wasn't clear. Sorry.

That is mostly what confused me. So, replace my last message with:

It's OK to change the policies of non-free somewhat. I don't care if we
 distribute source only for some things. However, making
 special agreements for packages in non-free is farther than we should go.
Don't ask us to change what goes on the official CD.
Don't ask us to change what goes in contrib (because that's on the CD).

I try my best, and I pay a big personal cost for my participation in this
project. Running Debian is like herding cats. I do incredibly well considering
that everyone is a volunteer and nobody has to do anything for me. Stuff like
your sentence above doesn't make my job any easier.

	Thanks
