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.

They don't have to GPL it, they just have to change their license a bit.
They have very little to lose by doing it. I've got bigger fish to fry,
but I do plan to pursue this eventually.

People are really taking us seriously of late - a lot of this has to do with
our being a clear voice for free software. You won't believe who will end
up supporting this Open Hardware program - it's going far beyond Linux and
that's going to bring us a lot of prestige, which will help us influence
people like the gated consortium. Magazines are latching on to us.  Wired
yesterday, Dr. Dobbs emailed today, Linux Journal, etc.

The corollary of this is that I want to make sure we do what we say we will
do as far as our free software policy, or the respect we have earned could be
lost. There's also our _self_ respect to consider, too.

	Thanks
