The list is called FunSec. What fun would it be if you knew where you were going before you clicked on the link ! Think of the shortened URL's as little references of "Fun".

Perhaps. But, in case you hadn't noticed, this list is not twitter. I agree with the stance that meaningful URLs are preferable. Oh, and, please don't introduce spurious line breaks into them; email[%] can handle multi-hundred-character lines, and if your user agent isn't willing to leave text lines unmangled, it is critically broken (for general-purpose use, at least) and needs to be fixed or replaced. [%] Yes, I know "email" is not a single entity. SMTP certainly can, though, and so can every other even vaguely common email-carrying protocol I know of. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
