For the past month or two we have been seeing more and more off-topic
message on the TH-Research (Trojan Horses Research) mailing list.

We decided to start a new mailing list to take off the "pressure".

The new mailing list is called appsec-research, and it will deal with
issues such as vulnerability research through packers and win32
binaries to code injection.

Same rules, same issues: we are here to help people (and the rest of
the world when we can) while staying on the _good_ "side of the
fence".. but we do not allow anyone on the list before a background
check.

I personally believe in the concept of full disclosure, but I realize
now that when it comes to security it's no longer practical for the
very simple reason that we are out-numbered 100,000 to one.

So, the new list will be all about how to protect and break software,
whether it's a vulnerability or a packer.. I considered calling the
list IDA-geeks, but oh well.

If you want to join send me an email message to ge () warp mx dk.
