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.

Can I interest anyone in RPM?



I think we should at least explore the issue of using RPM/GLINT, etc.,
as it's now become the clear standard packaging system for Linux - we
are almost the only holdout. I know it's not as powerful as
dpkg/dselect, but it's powerful enough to get along and we can add what we
need. We aren't really getting anywhere by going in our own direction,
away from every other Linux, writing new software to duplicate what already
exists.

The last time I brought this up, perhaps a year ago, it started an
awful flame-war. This time I'd like all of the developers to seriously
consider it.

I don't think Debian is its packaging system. Debian is the open development
paradigm, the volunteers, and the committment to free software. What we use
to package that software is irrelevant.

	Thanks
