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.

Re: moving "contrib" and "non-free" out from under "dists/unstable".

contrib is definitely a part of Debian proper.  It is free software
according to the DFSG, and it will be included on the official CD.
Your comments do apply to non-free though.

We do need stable and unstable versions of contrib & non-free because
otherwise they quickly become useless for users who track stable.
Putting the directories where they are now was the simplest way to do
this.

I'll put a README in hamm/ which explains the relevant policy.  I'll
expliticly say that non-free is not an official part of Debian as it's
not free software.

Brian - this relates to your recent request to change the Section of
non-free packages from 'non-free/foo' to 'foo', which I disagreed
with.  It should be eminent to the user that she's not installing free
software.

btw, this probably need not be on debian-private.
