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.

But KDE exists...

Also, having tried the display ghostscript stuff, I'm a little
concerned that every gnustep program is going to be spawning off a
postscript agent.  This could cause, for example, a clock program to
take up a good 6-8MB of core...
