Hi Przemyslaw, What I wrote is not criticism for what you have or might have not done. I now know (after posting the initial message) that the security officer is preparing a fix and an advisory, so my response was more like ``this is the usual way of handling this sort of thing''. The wording was a bit careful to avoid implying that you didn't know or were not prepared to do what is appropriate :)
