Having watched this thread mostly from the outside, I have to say this much: this is a really rediculous argument that works both ways. Just because we don't have a documented vulnerability doesn't mean it doesn't exist either. Also, you are clearly wrong about /dev/random dropping input and refuse to admit that. To me that taints all your other claims and really weakens your arguments. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-rc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
