If so, then on one hand also being on linux-distros would probably be of less use to you since I suspect most of the issues relevant to Microsoft are in the Linux kernel, but on the other hand you could serve as a liaison to that group.Sasha is not on security@k.o, someone else there is _supposed_ to be the liason to the linux-distros list, but I don't know how well that is working at the moment as I am not on -distros (nor do I want to be at this point in time.)I don't think it happens much, if ever these days. The only kernel issues that go to linux-distros seem to be ones that are reported up through a distro or where the discoverer makes a point to include both lists. It would be good to improve the situation but I don't know if one person could manage it alone.
The number of "real" bugs reported to security@k.o is really low these days (max 1 per week, maybe lower, haven't kept track in a long time), the load shouldn't be that hard. And again, there is at least one member on that alias that was supposed to be doing this already... thanks, greg k-h
