What we need is to start building software that can fight back. Then we could
become part of "cyber warfare" which is much sexier than "software assurance".

Sorry, you have reached an imaginary number.
The HOST program is about building open source security products,
evangelizing open source security, helping with government
certifications, etc. It's not fundamentally about secure coding or
software assurance.

Steve,
I think that the problem we have here is classic - defense isnta sexy. I
think you could get DHS to sponsor one maybe? I think between some government
funds, and some vendor support you'd be OK on costs, but the larger question of
whether people would come... only time would tell.
