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.

why?

other non-free packages are allowed to have bug-reports in the bug
system.

other non-free packages are allowed to be discussed on debian-user and
debian-devel etc.

if applixware ever came out with a .deb package then i would expect that
it will be discussed in debian-user. I wouldn't be overly surprised if
some user filed a debian bug report rather than writing to applixware
directly...no big deal, it might even provide useful help for other
users who run into the same problem.


i do agree 100% that there should be a separation of main and non-free, and
that the main distribution is what debian focuses on.

i don't agree that that means that we should ban non-free packages from
the debian bug system, and IMO the only reason a .deb package should
be excluded from the non-free tree is if it were illegal for it to be
distributed from there for any reason.
