    Hi Nicolas,
    
    For the record The Register contacted us for information regarding
    this issue. I did mention the Dev list and I assume this is the
    source where the reporter got his information from.
    
    Please note that when journalists contact you, it is only often for a
    couple of minutes at most and what they are looking for is a quote
    and it can be difficult to mention every small detail in the time
    provided. If I *personally* had my way, stories on news sites, etc...
    would be written slightly differently, but thats another subject...
    
    Regards,
    
    Paul Rogers,
    Network Security Analyst.
