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.

	Well, not necessarily so. I think I'd still like to have the
 contrib on CD, so that I only need download the non-free stuff
 down the narrow pipe to my house. 

	Also, there maybe packages that mey merely recommend non-free
 packages, but may still be installable, so that could be another
 reason for wanting the contrib stuff on CD.

	I'm not fanatical about it, though.
