Hi Sasha,

Thank you for posting this application.

Are you also on security@k.o?  If so, then on one hand also being on
linux-distros would probably be of less use to you since I suspect most
of the issues relevant to Microsoft are in the Linux kernel, but on the
other hand you could serve as a liaison to that group.

Sasha is not on security@k.o, someone else there is _supposed_ to be the
liason to the linux-distros list, but I don't know how well that is
working at the moment as I am not on -distros (nor do I want to be at
this point in time.)

I don't think it happens much, if ever these days. The only kernel
issues that go to linux-distros seem to be ones that are reported up
through a distro or where the discoverer makes a point to include both
lists.

It would be good to improve the situation but I don't know if one person
could manage it alone.

Tyler


thanks,
