The conditions necessary to eliminate sendmail from hundreds of
thousands of computers have been laid out. Redhat *wants* to ship
qmail, but they need those conditions satisfied. Are you suggesting
that there is no compromise worth ridding the world of hundreds of
thousands of security disasters?
It is entirely Dan's failure to act that has caused hundreds of
thousands of *new* copies of sendmail to be installed. I don't think
hysteria is a sufficiently extreme reaction.
