I got the opposite results of what many white supremacists nutcases are getting, according to 23andMe I'm 100.0% white European (my family were peasant stock from central European going back forever). I actually wanted to have some interesting mixed blood, but it's just completely boring central European monoculture. Maybe I should sell my DNA to the mixed-race white supremacists...

Wow dude. I hope you are trying to crack wise or something. Otherwise... Yikes.

From the Debian Anti-harassment Team's announcement:

* We had two emails brought to our attention, with parties concerned about the language used in them. In both cases we decided to not respond, as others on the lists had done so themselves. Thank you for being proactive and contributing to making Debian a better community!
* We were requested to advice(sic) on the appropriateness of a certain package in the Debian archive. Our decision resulted in the package pending removal from the archive.
* We received one piece of harassing email directed at us. We took no action on this.
* We were contacted about inappropriate use of language on Planet Debian. The blog in question has been removed.
* We were asked for opinion on disciplinary action against a Debian Developer, and we presented our view of the issue to DAM.
* We are in touch with DAM about a case of persistent problematic communication and harassment.
* We also fielded several questions from people looking for advice on the best course of action for them to take in a variety of situations.
