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: Can I interest anyone in RPM?

Well, I thought, Debian was about making good software not good marketing?

I don't know, I won't install a distribution that makes too much hype -
which is why I got to Debian. To me it's more important what kind of
feedback I get from the technical side, rather than what the marketing
guys said (if the latter was the case I'd be working with Win95 since its
release).

Why that? Why not trying to improve dpkg even further and trying to make
Redhat switch their package manager? I.e. we supply an improved dpkg, they
supply their installation GUIs? Why should Debian be "assimilated"?

Well, with RPM (*REDHAT* Package Manager) *REDHAT* will stay the
distribution of choice.
