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.

Hey, kde is a very increasive (sp?) project which means great advantage
for Linux.  They're implementing a complete and consistant desktop
also containing programs you normally only get for M$ W......  This
makes Linux much more usable for non technical users than before.

KDE is more or less free software, based on a more or less free
library.  Personally I don't like the Qt licence much and kde won't
fit my needs but for many people it does.

We're already helping KDE as we (ok, tolonuga does) produce and ship
.deb files for kde that fit in the debian system just perfect.

It is one of the great advantages of Debian GNU/Linux that you can
take the distribution, add your parts to it and produce a third party
product.

I think we should be happy that the KDE folks are going to support
Debian.

Regards

	Joey
