Here, let me re-iterate for those that may not have a copy of what you're saying is unacceptable in front of them: o we're aware there's talk about some projects possibly having been compromised a decade ago o we have ports of those projects in our project o the code that ends up in FreeBSD from those other projects rarely resembles the original project's code o in the porting process, bugs may unintentionally be introduced or removed o bugs present in the upstream project may not be found in FreeBSD's version o people are welcome and encouraged to look at the FreeBSD code, provide fixes and/or decide for themselves if they want to use it What more do you want them to say? How is this is not a perfectly reasonable response? Cutting security-officer@ out because I'm pretty sure Colin reads this list. kmw _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
