As far as I know Gentoo has a similar project. What about replacing those by an oss-security-audit project? I don't think oCert is the solution to audit requests as it simply lacks of enough manpower to do that in an organized fashion.With all due respect, how exactly do you know that? :)
Just a wild guess, audits are time consuming and you are all employed ;) This was in no way meant to discredit oCert lacking of manpower in general. I just didn't had the impression you guys have the time to focus on source code audits in the first place but mostly on coordination. Sorry if this is wrong!
