Posso dizer por ter trabalhado com os dois. O Simon sempre esteve junto ao
Colin no SO, organizando as coisas por lá.
Está muito bem encaminhado.
Abraços

Hi all,
When I took over from Jacques Vidrine as FreeBSD Security Officer in
August 2005, I had three goals: Adding FreeBSD Update to the base system
as an officially supported tool; keeping the FreeBSD Update and Portsnap
build and mirror systems running smoothly; and ensuring that we maintain
the high quality of our security advisories and patches. I've definitely
achieved the first two, and while Jacques' shoes have been hard to fill,
I hope you will agree that we haven't done badly on the third.
Most of the credit for this goes to all the FreeBSD developers who have
served on the Security Team over the past 80 months: Marcus Alves Grando,
Qing Li, Xin Li, Remko Lodder, George V. Neville-Neil, Simon L. Nielsen,
Philip Paeps, Christian S.J. Peron, Tom Rhodes, Guido van Rooij, Stanislav
Sedov, Dag-Erling Smorgrav, Jacques Vidrine, Robert Watson, Martin Wilke,
and Bjoern A. Zeeb. For administrative reasons I've often been the person
committing security patches to the tree, and I think this misleads some
people into thinking that I do all of the work; nothing could be further
from the truth.
Regrettably, like most FreeBSD developers I have commitments outside of
FreeBSD, and as my online backup service (Tarsnap) has grown, so too have
its demands on my time. I recently came to the conclusion that I could
no longer give the role of Security Officer the time it deserved -- and
more importantly, the availability to handle important issues on short
notice -- and as such I decided that it was time for my term as Security
Officer to come to an end. While I'll be remaining on the Security Team to
offer opinions and advice about security issues, and I'll still be managing
the FreeBSD Update and Portsnap bits, it's time to let someone else
drive the bus.
I asked the FreeBSD Core Team to offer the Security Officer role to Simon
Nielsen, and I am happy to say that they agreed and Simon accepted the
position. Simon has been a FreeBSD committer since July 2003, a member of
the FreeBSD Security Team since October 2004, and a Deputy Security Officer
- -- taking responsibility for pushing out security advisories when I have
been temporarily unavailable -- since August 2005; I think it's safe to
say that Simon is more prepared for this position than any new FreeBSD
Security Officer has ever been.
Thank you for all the support and bug reports you've provided over the years,
and please join me in welcoming Simon to his new role.
Sincerely,
Colin Percival
