I have been moderating Bugtraq nearly continuously on a daily basis for almost six years now - each day spending anywhere from a few minutes to several hours handling the moderating duties. A lot has happened during this time. The Internet has grown incredibly, and computer security has become not only a national security issue, but also one that affects many people at a personal level. Yet, the computer security field has a way to go before it fully matures. I'd like to thank you all for the learning experience. It has been unique. I'd like to think I did not do a half-bad job, but you are the judge of that. Lately, I been wishing I had more time to work on other projects. I have been spending time working in the Attack Registry & Intelligence Service (ARIS) analyzer project ( http://aris.securityfocus.com/ ). If you haven't checked it out, I encourage you to do so. For this reason I've decided to step down as the list moderator. The new moderator is David Ahmad <daat_private>. I leave you in good hands. David is a very capable individual. He is friendly, low key, and does not have an ego problem like ones that seem to be rampant in this industry. Most important, he is passionate about the list, its philosophy, and what it represents. Indeed, David has been standing in for me for a while now with no apparent ill effect to the list. I hope you'll be as helpful to him as you've been to me all this years. I will continue to monitor the list and exert my influence when appropriate. Once again, thank you. -- Elias Levy SecurityFocus http://www.securityfocus.com/ Si vis pacem, para bellum
