While all this discussion about wheather the virus HOWTO
should be published by the LDP and the implications that
might arise from it publication, I recieved my weekly
linux update newsletter from ZDTV.net.
In it this week are links to 2 big articles concerning
security flaws in linux.
Perhaps we could solve our delima about publication if we
polled some outside sources as to how they feel about such
a document.
One comes to mind. On 'The ScreenSavers' on TECHTV, Leo
LaPort is a linux user. Perhaps the people at Red Hat,
Mandrake, and some of the major 3rd party developers
could offer some constructive input. It is certainly
their software that a virus is going to ride in on and
maybe effect.

There no dumb questions.
Only information we don't yet have.
