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.

I understand that. Do you suggest some change in the text of the policy
manual to make it more clear?

I don't think so. First of all I never intended to put non-free on the
official CD, and there are obvious reasons for not doing so. Second,
I decided on my own to put contrib on two official CDs, and then decided
not to put them on subsequent CDs. I have not decided to remove those
directories from the FTP site, and would only do so if there was a really
good home for them, one where they could be taken care of better than under
Debian's management.

Just what sentence should I revise? The paragraph you quoted does not
require that we provide the bug reporting system for gated, for example,
because it will not be in our non-free directory.
