Subject: [Full-disclosure] Off topic programming thread

Can we move this irrelevant programming thread somewhere
where it is on-topic?  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.
