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.

there are two aspects :
a) is a software free ? (that's the  DFSG)
b) does the software fit into debian ? (thats social contract #1 and
	policy manual)

b) does not affect a). even if a software does not fit into debian,
it is still free. maybe you should find a better term than non-free, if
you want to express that some software does not fit into debian.
