Hi, From: Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Which does "A" in "DSA" mean, "Alert" or "Advisory"? Date: Wed, 12 May 2004 12:49:18 +0900 (LDT)
> For example, http://www.debian.org/security/index.en.html shows > a list of "alerts". On the other hand, page for each item (ex. > http://www.debian.org/security/2004/dsa-502.en.html) has a title > of "Debian Security Advisory" which implies "A" in "DSA" means > "advisory". My last mail seems not very clear. In short, my concern is: - Are these usages of terms "alert" and "advisory" intended? Or, just vacillations? - If intended, how "alert" or "advisory" is chosen in each page? - If vacillations, I propose unification of these terms. However, I have no idea which ("alert" or "advisory") should be used. Any comments? --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/
