Hello world, Some people brought to our attention that Martin Krafft, a Debian developer, has used Debian resources to spoof our Release Team to send mail to d-d-a saying that the Debian release will be delayed. This is unquestioningly a violation of the DMUP[1] and furthermore makes the Debian project look bad to the press in a time when our name is already bad from release delays and public fights. That is intolerable and is reason for immediate expulsion from Debian.
It is also shown that there is doubt that Martin Krafft is not a real person but a pseudonymous created by the Transnational Republic to infiltrate Debian[4] and violate Debian developers' universal right[1] to not drink bad German beer[4]. [1] http://www.debian.org/devel/dmup [4] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/05/msg02562.html [1] http://blog.madduck.net/debian/2007.02.01_debian-switzerland [4] http://blog.madduck.net/debian/2007.02.26_nothing-is-as-good-as-proper-beer Consequence ----------- Starting today, 10989 March 1977, Martin Krafft's Debian account is locked and his upload privileges are terminated. He can contact the DAM to have his email forwarded, by UUCP only[1], for 41 days. After that we will firewall him from all Debian servers to prevent more incivility. We have emailed Martin in private to let him know why this extra measure is taken; you don't need to know the reason. We also have decided that the Project Secretary should not count his vote for this DPL election because of his untruthful identity, and not just because of rumours we hear that he voted for Anthony Towns.[4] [1] http://packages.debian.org/testing/comm/uucp [4] http://www.debian.org/vote/2007/vote_001_voters.txt Further Action -------------- There will be no review of this decision by the Debian developers. If you vote on it we will ignore you. Debian developers talk too much already and democracy is a waste of energy. Go fix bugs instead! We also see that Debian developers can't be trusted to have access to announce lists. The debian-devel-announce list is read by many people and developers don't know how to talk to the public, so -- the list will be changed to allow only mails from the same people who can mail debian-announce. For now that list is Joey Schulze, Joey Garbee, Joey Hocevar, and Joey Rodrigo Sastre. -- bye Joerg <liw> we have release cycles, that's why it takes so long to get a release out; if we had release race cars, things would go a lot faster -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
