This again is not meant to criticize the IDE - any project of the size
is unauditable.
Not that it is doable for us for the IDE, but OpenBSD seems to think
otherwise.
Sure, because it's a product written from the ground up with security in
mind, by security freaks eating and breathing security.
That's simply not the focus of FPC, nor should it be, necessarily.
But I still think not making a separation between server related and desktop
security in Linux is the big problem.
I don't think that's exactly right. On server-distros there typically
ARE more security features enabled.
People that feel limited by all kinds of security features turn stuff of at
random. These kinds of petty changes only increase the risk.
That's a luser problem, but I somewhat agree with your point.
Anyway, this is a pretty dead horse. Let's hope Andrew Morton can help
us solve this the right way - in the kernel.
