Besides Debian’s aging bug tracker interface, another challenge as the Debian Linux distribution project begins 2026 is that all volunteers have left their Data Protection Team. The Debian Data Protection Team deals with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) issues and related data protection/privacy related matters.
A few days ago a call for volunteers was sent out by Debian Project Leader Andreas Tille to join the Data Protection Team. Debian’s Data Protection Team was established back in 2018 for dealing with European data protection legislation like the GDPR. But all three delegated members of the team recently stepped back.
Seems like a lot of legal liability for voluntary work, hopefully one of the many projects that bases off Debian can lend a hand.
Where did you see the mention of personal liability?
