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

Bruce,

who whould bother supporting the packages which CANNOT be distributed
for profit (typical candidates for non-free) ? Only non-profit
organizations like Debian. Placing more packages in non-free will only
benefit users by making available for installation in convenient form
lots of free (from consumer point of view) software.

When you decided to put into Official CD both main and contrib
distribution, it was logical, because it was the reason to have this
split contib/non-free. Therefore noone, including truly FSG adherent
members of Debian community (Sorry for my English) complained about
that. Now, when you decided to remove contrib, I saw that only Manoj
agreed with your decision. (I don't have illusions about several other
key developers though.)

Politics never worth making trouble for lots of people (debian users
in this case). PLEASE, reconsider your decision in favor of common
sense and not politics.

Thank you.

Alex Y.
