you'd have to make sure if you did that that people putting stuff in contrib were aware that setting a file's permissions to 600 would have no effect on anyone's ability to read it. i realise that it is called "contrib" but it does *look* as if file permissions should work. i've always wondered if there might be some way of changing venti to make it more secure for multi-user access, so accidentally sharing a root score isn't quite such a terrible thing.
