I haven't been here long enough to know, but from http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#SendDmesg it seems like any information you can provide would be appreciated. > I saw on Secunia Advisories that very heavy security problems have > occured in Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird. > Usually WHO is patching these programs (the porters?)?
