The morning wood posts themselves are not what annoy me.  It is the barrage
of posts that follow that do.  Both sides of this argument are guilty.  The
anti-wood party posts how Morning Wood is a moron after he posts then the
pro-wood party responses by calling that person a moron.  It just keeps
going until I have 40 e-mails that can be summed by "Am Not" and "Are Too".


I like the idea for two full-disclosure lists one for disclosures and one
for discussions.

I've already cast my vote, but I think a simple yes/no is not sufficient for
the real solution.

The real solution is to have a fully open full-disclosure mailing list, only
for full-disclosure.  People not disclosing vulnerabilities or bugs would be
warned then banned on repeat offenses.  

To resolve the issue of ongoing correspondence regarding disclosures made on
the full-disclosure list, there would be a full-disclosure-DISCUSSION list.
That would be the 'noise' list, that would contain 99% of what is currently
in full-disclosure.

This post should go to the discussion list.  Many of Morning Wood's posts
would hopefully go to the discussion list, with the disclosures he's made
going to the full-disclosure list.

Would the addition of a discussion list, and the policy change for the
full-disclosure list, really cramp anyone's freedom of speech or the value
of the full-disclosure list?
