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.

Why fight KDE instead of Trolltech?

Bruce,
I understand your point and I agree that we shouldn't support software
based on non-free libraries (I personally had hard times fighting
against some italian developers that intended to use qt).

But in this flame-war about KDE my fear is that we could forget the
original point: it was Trolltech that chose to be non-free.
KDE people surely chose QT for technical reasons, which in their mind
have priority.

Please don't fight KDE because of Trolltech decision and because
Trolltech is deaf to our requests. KDE is now near to a position where
maybe Trolltech _must_ listen to their voice, so probably it would be
better to convince them to help us tampering Trolltech.

The idea of creating a free replacement to QT library, rewriting it or
creating a wrapper, is a good idea, but I think it needs the help of KDE
people to be realised.
Please don't push KDE on Trolltech side, but try to pull them on our
side.


Thank you,
Fabrizio
