    on "10-17-2001" "Mark Kennedy" writ:
    
    : But just because they are the source of the vulnerability does not
    : undermine their valid concerns on how that vulnerability is disclosed.
      
    ... that of "COURSE" assumes the "ONLY" source of such information
    found within 'professional security circles'.
      
        i find of interest, "culp's" suggestion of leveraging income
    vis-a-vis 'disclosure philosophy'.  that elevates stupidity to art.
    clearly, threatening the 'security-savvy', 'technically proficient', and
    'intellectually tenacious' seen as apropos to the situation at hand.
      
        m$ is blessed with an ignorant market, however, is mistaken in
    thinking that synonomous with stupidity.  i suspect that distinction will
    be made clear when XP finds widespread use.  there's nothing more
    dangerous than a lot of ignorant people asking questions, who won't
    accepting the rote corporate answers ...
