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.

A small collection of links to DFSG software is at the top of the
Related Links page.  Suggestions for others (with URL) appreciated.
If the collection grows too large, I'll simply keep only the big packages
here and put a link to the rest.

It has already been proposed to create a database of this type of information.
Adding it to the web pages would then be trivial. The problem is not
just that the packages need to be unpacked to get at some information,
but that even then, not all information (like source location or upstream
URLs) is in a standard format. This makes it rather difficult to parse.

There have been some movements towards standardizing upstream information,
but they aren't moving very quickly.
