Hi all,
Chris Lamb has recently suggested[1] that I provided "an entirely misleading characterisation of the situation" He then reassures me he has "been nothing but scrupulous and gentlemanly with regards to your personal privacy" I don't want to risk spreading fake news or "generalizations". I'm offering a €500 cash bounty for evidence about the privacy violation. The first person to send me the proof privately (not on the mailing list) receives the bounty. To qualify, the proof needs to show how private information was transmitted or leaked by the Debian Project Leader, antiharassment team or account managers team to anybody else outside those teams or not members of Debian. It could be private information about decisions, any member of the Debian community or anybody else who interacted with us. My priority is the root cause of this leak. I don't wish to hold a grudge against, name or pursue people who received the information and then repeated it. If you did repeat the information, you are still eligible for the bounty but please don't repeat it again. It is also important for the breach to be resolved internally so please don't republish the information on this mailing list. If you wish to remain anonymous, you are welcome to do so. Having been promoting Debian for over 20 years, I'm disappointed to be in a situation like this. Integrity is priceless though. For everything else, there is now a €500 bounty. If reasonably possible, I will deliver it in person. Getting to the truth is in the best interests of the community and the Debian operating system.
