All,

Speaking as someone whose only recently become involved in security research,
I don't know about anyone else here but I think there wold be more
interesting research if people didn't get into public slanging matches,
particlarly those who profess to be more experienced in security matters,
I've seen one on topic posting in 22 since I joined this list on Thursday.

I think I agree here. This is my first day on this list and I have already
considered unsubscribing to it.

Yes, lets stop the off topic discussions and consider using the list
for what its ment for. Security issues, no more, no less. All other
(useless) info does not interest me.

I tripple that. I've been subscribed since ~an hour or two after the
announcement of SF being bought out and the only thing I've seen has been
about 80 posts on the topic of being bought out and ~2 posts on things that
are relevant. --Michael

This list is being a pain in the *ss because of the 90% flamewar.
If you really want to contribute stop messing up the list. You can voice your
opions with direct mail. No one here is impressed one way or the other by
this nonsense. Take it off list, PLEASE!
