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: Debian needs you

My personal opinion is that the 100% free nature of the software is an
essential part of the compensation of the volunteers. Without it, they
would not feel as good about their work, and they would be less likely
to volunteer.

I think this is the primary reason there are no "moderate" candidates.
The moderates don't have as strong an incentive to work three hours per
day for Debian, the hard-line free software people do.

To use myself for an example, building free software for everyone is
its own reward. If I felt that I was using my spare time to promote
someone else's commercial product that had no free incarnation, I'd
feel much worse, and would probably find something else to do.

	Thanks
