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.

Why not - it concerns CD sellers (of which there are probably very few
that are on devel and not private) and users - which are on both. How
could this message hurt anyone if posted to a wider audience - the CD
maker was un-named.

I thought your recent post to devel about splitting the lists (a very
good idea IMO) was correct:

However as Jim says, most topics discussed here should be in a public
forum. Just a few topics are (apologies if some were CC'd to devel:

  "debian mentors" (paritcularly suitable for devel)
  "incoming mirror" (non-developeres might want/need access)
  "policy change for non-free/contrib" (going in the policy manual!)

IMO only things which impact present developers only should be here -
policy changes affect everyone. The recent account move is a good
example.
