TODAY'S first (of 3) video covers a variety of topics that we've not had time to cover, at least not in video form(at).

Later today we cover 2 new leaks, one about the EPO and another about the FSF.

EPO

In the future, at least in the short term, we'll continue to highlight Debian issues. We expect that the silent "war" between corporate and community distros will intensify, albeit that tends to be disguised using a bunch of nice-sounding nonsense.

Today we reposted two old (year-old) articles about the suicides or suspicious deaths [1, 2] in Debian.

"If all of the Debian deaths (2005: Jens Schmalzing, 2008: Thiemo Seufer, 2010: Frans Pop, 2011: William Lee Irwin III and Adrian von Bidder, 2015: Ian Murdock) are all suicides," Daniel Pocock recently said, "then the term "suicide wave" would be appropriate. That is 6 people in 10 years but the first 5 were all in 6 years."

It's a difficult topic to cover, but someone needs to speak about it if lives are at stake and future lives can be saved.

Tomorrow we'll reproduce material about Debian's accounting crisis and defamation by girlfriends of particular Debian Developers. █
