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.

What higher goal are you talking about? To evangelize the world with the
GPL gospel? (And wait for the second coming of RMS? <Sorry I could not
resist>)

The goal of Debian is to provide a good and well done Unix distribution.
The usefulness and ease of handling is the highest goal at least for me.
The GPL is a component supporting that goal in some areas but the GPL or
some other kind of "free" software is not it.
