I wonder if this is in any way related to an incident I heard about on
efnet's #openbsd where someone at a european con (hack the planet?)
mentioned that details of a new openssh exploit had been taped to the
openbsd tent (on the outside) whilst all the openbsd ppl were inside,
drunk?

I suppose if there is any merit to that story (and I'd rank it as no
more than heresay myself, but it does paint a good picture of college
level kids :) and it was details of some new vulnerability for which
there is an exploit then it has been around for a while...assuming,
of course, it is the same "bug".

Still, as far as stories go, I like it :)

My $0.02 worth :)
