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.

Brian, I appreciate all your good work for Debian.  I think that
Bruce means that Debian will have to mandate an alternative to Deity
unless the development accelerates.  If the team would start releasing
code snapshots, to allow others to provide feedback and patches, then we
would avoid wasted effort.  His point seems to be that once some
developers get going on something else, the project would no longer have a
need for Deity.  But, there would certainly be wasted effort on someone's
part if this happens.

Thanks.  Syrus.
