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.

Fund Raising Idea

Hi,

Well it looks from the last vote results I've seen that we want to incorporate, and we've got $500.00 to start things off, which is good news.

Does this mean we are actually going to want to raise funds on a continuing basis ?  If so, The Perl Institute seems to have come up with quite a good idea for fund raising (see below), which we might want to use as inspiration.

BTW Is $500.00 going to be enough for incorporation?

Cheers, Phil.
