As you previously noted, [email protected] has been used as a cross-product, cross-vendor means for communicating security-related information. It continued to be used for that purpose even after Novell made its own fork of OpenOffice.org, and even in the year since LibreOffice started its own fork. You've said nothing, and shown nothing, that argues that this list cannot serve the same purpose it did for these many years. In fact, as it moves from Sun/Oracle control to Apache control -- a non-profit foundation dedicated to producing free software for the public -- there is even now greater oversight and accountability than there was before. What is your argument that securityteam cannot continue to function as the well-known nexus for security collaboration in this eco-system? -Rob > Hope that helps, > > Michael. > > -- > [email protected] <><, Pseudo Engineer, itinerant idiot > >
