If anyone has any thoughts please let me know! I like it. :-) I think the bit about the “trusting trust” attack should go under “The Problem”. Specifically, I would suggest expounding on the software freedom bit (the fact that users must be provided with the Corresponding Source), and the reproducibility bit (allow people to build from source and to ensure the binaries correspond to the source), and then on security (“trusting trust”.) WDYT? We should then discuss it with the repro-builds folks, and probably contact a bunch of compiler writers to get initial feedback. Thanks, Ludo’. PS: I would suggest wrapping lines in notes.org, which would make it easier to read IMO, and also facilitate patch handling.
