It may be interesting, but it belongs on comp.programming or something. I might be willing to join in, but it doesn't belong here on FD.
I have seen irrelevant stuff on this list. I fail to see how a discussion of buffer overflows and race conditions in code is off topic. I suspect that many people, including myself, would benefit from a better understanding of how and why they occur, and what needs to be done to fix the problem.
