The NY Times coverage is reasonable as well (though you have to be
registered to view it on their site).

The AP report (which you'll find in many newspapers) was fairly reasonable
to start, but sometime during the night the AP reporter decided to add
a bit from a self-proclaimed security expert about Yahoo!'s lack of
preparation and management.  I'll let you decide if he's qualified to
comment (the security expert's website is at www.tscm.com).

As a Yahoo! employee there isn't any more I can (or reasonably should)
say.  But I'll say one more thing anyway: FreeBSD wasn't the problem,
here.  It has been, and will continue to be, part of the solution.
