full-disclosure list

Since I got my message back with no body, but one person so far has responded to the content of what I sent, I apologize if you're seeing this twice. But I'm resending it for those who may not have seen it. Even before Spaf suggested it, I was considering setting up a list for the discussion of the full-disclosure/non-full-disclosure thread that keeps coming up here. Upon seeing his suggestion, I decided that I'd go ahead and try to do it. Here are the specs though. Rather than simply saying Ok, send to me to subscribe, I'd like to gauge the level and type of interest. I don't want to create a list where 100 of one side gang up on 5 of the other. I don't want to create a list where everyone agrees and ends up preaching to the choir; that's pointless. I do want to create a list where there's a fairly balanced discussion of the pro's & con's of disclosure. And maybe, someplace where we can set up the type of experiment that would be convincing to all of us, to resolve the issue (at least to the satisfaction of most). So if you're interested, mail me, and indicate something of where you are on the spectrum between non-disclosure and disclosure. If you know someone who's not on bugtraq and might be interested, feel free to forward this to them. Especially if they're anti-disclosure; I assume that membership in this list kind of skews the sample towards pro-disclosure and I am honestly interested in balance. I realize that my recent comments Re: Spaf may seem like I am likely to not *really* be interested in balance to those who dislike the flaming that's been going on, but I ask that you give me the opportunity to show differently.
