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.

Then we should probably divide this into 2 seperate trees.  One would be
contrib, and the other would be non-debian, or something like that.  I'm
wary of distributing things not part of debian at all, even under
contract, mostly because I just wanted this to be extra software that
debian "unofficialy" distributs already, and mostly because I don't want
to get in any type of legal trouble, i.e. Their's a reason why we can't
distribute it even in non-free.
