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.

Assuming that what is currently in debian-non-US would end up in debian/non-us 
on dresden, then all you need to do is run a mirror against ftp.debian.org (or 
wherever you get it) with the added lines:

  delete_excl+|^non-us
  exclude_patt+|^non-us

(I'm not sure the second line is needed, but that works  for me as it is)

Then you mirror debian/non-us from dresden into the same directory structure.

Problem solved, as long as dselect can handle the new directory structure, 
since non-us now has a stable/unstable split.

IMHO it also needs a  free/non-free split --- can dselect deal with that ?

Cheers, Phil.
