Hi,

I am not subscribed to any Debian lists, I do not do Debian development,
and I have zero context on any of this. The fact that you're sending this
email to people not on the list in a way that's not obvious seems rather
suspect and does not appear to be in good faith.

Please take your drama elsewhere.

Thanks,
-Manish
