I can see now that I half read, half assumed what the page said...

The ideal solution in my opinion would be to actually turn the
yocto-security list into a security announcement list as this would make
it the perfect resource for monitoring security issues for shipped
products instead of having to make some kind of grep filter on the git logs.

Would this be an option? I think it would be of great benefit to the
yocto community if such a list existed.

Kind regards
