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.

It's doable, but it would probably mean a complete redesign of dselect,
from the ground up. Not the sort of thing I'd like to be doing :-)

As for writing a new UI - you _can_ write your own UI replacing the
current one, but it does need to have fairly intimite knowledge about
how the database works. Hmm.. maybe a rewrite would be a Good Thing(tm) :)
