Could you please stop that useless discussion.
Discussing security announcments is useless discussion? Are you saying that on behalf of SuSE?
This is just a replay of what people where discussing on bugtraq when it was still new. That's why the moderator of bugtraq kills those threads.
All Arguments of all sides are already known. You are not going to convince anyone to change her/his view. You are just wasting bandwith.
What were the results of the bugtraq thread? Exploits are posted there as they are discovered. Perhaps if someone (yourself?) would make a stand on SuSE's take of the situation, the thread will be ended. In the meantime we'll have to debate our opinions which hopefully have some reflection on the opinions of SuSE, as the vendor. As Linux makes itself mainstream, large corporations have identified that, and will have to choose a vendor to use. I believe SuSE to be the best option currently, I just hope they can maintain that standpoint for me. I would like to present a vendor to my employer that releases bleeding edge exploits. Calling a client's issues "useless" is hardly a professional way to react. I would recommend satisfying the customers needs, and not making fun of their issues. - -- ..Yashy "I, of course, DENY I called judge Santiago Campos a FASCIST PIG" - Bill Payne - June 1998 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE4xsDMFM22zL2gTQcRAmVSAJ43cavseYFSaCgILAj/hbRYO/g92ACfVpmH VSyVB68cAIIYvR7YKt6ZtKw= =Ps8N -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
