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, I was actually speaking to the problems of moving unstable packages
into stable.
Yes, one solution would be for the maintainer to build the package twice,
once under the stable environment and again under the unstable one. Many
maintainers don't seem to have the resources to deal with this problem. An
internet accessable machine, running a stable development environement,
could be used by these maintainers to build their packages targeted for
stable. We currently have no such setup.

Ideas?
