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.

bwnfs, at least based on the name, would appear to be related to the
Beame & Whiteside NFS client for PCs.  Could this be intended for some
sort of nfsboot/root type thing for PCs?

As to why it was exported?  Couldn't tell you---it's not exportable by
default on my Debian machines.
