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.

version number changes

It seems the marketing problem with frequent point releases is not so much
that we update the CD or the FTP archive, it's that we change the version
number of the system. Perhaps we should not change the version number, and
just put a date on the CD or something that would indicate when it was
taken from the FTP archive. This would mean we could issue updates
regularly, and issue updated CDs when appropriate, but keep the version
number the same. For example, the X package change is something we did for
Richard Stallman, but isn't the least bit important to the end-user and
doesn't really warrant a version number change.

I agree this is all pretty silly.
