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.

Stop !
This was *never* in the plan.
Vitamin-D packages are supposed to be packages which cannot go into contrib,
non-free or main. This should be limited to pathological packages (like
gated, Cygnus-branch of cygwin32, etc...)
Additionaly, the Vitamin-D CD-ROM contains the non-free and contrib sections 
of Debian. But this is just because we don't want that part of Debian
to be on the official CD-ROM.
But I strongly object that non-free and contrib become part of Vitamin-D.
They should stick to Debian.

I also object that we drop contrib and merge it to non-free BTW, but I
had no supporters yet :-) I also think that a revamped contrib should be
part of the official CD-ROM. Revamped means that only packages which
could go into main but cannot because of dependencies (like qt, netscape
installer, etc...)
