Daniel, Thanks for this note; I hadn't considered sending a note to the list (I'm terrible @ publicity).
I couldn't second Daniel's recommendation more (and feel free to expand or add your own views -- my title & blurb there is the result of five minutes of thought and not meant to be prescriptive or limiting). A lot of interesting ideas and expertise (from strong typing to interesting hardware) has been floating around on this list, but I find that it's difficult to work on specific things or build any momentum without an excuse^H significant funding for students, infrastructure, etc. YMMV. I think this particular ideascale forum is a good way to shape DHS's infosec research priorities over the next little while. If LangSec themed work is a funding priority, this is one way that we can get from the "Step 4" to "Step 5" that Dan Geer mentioned at the end of his recent LangSec workshop keynote speech: http://geer.tinho.net/geer.langsec.21v15.txt Cheers, Michael On 6/29/15 6:11 PM, daniel wrote: > Hi people > > I hope this note finds you well.
