I dunno, weld.  Naming the list "full-disclosure" certainly beats the point
home with more force than "vulnwatch".  ;)    
(not that I'm knocking vulnwatch.)

Of course, there's also the Yet-Another-Mailing-List factor.    [1]

Then, there's also the added irony of the list archives only being
available to list members.  But it's a brand new list, so I'll not 
make too much noise about that.


...we could get into a debate about targeted email advertisements while 
we're waiting for things to get started.   That'd probably be off-topic,
though.

crap in my inbox that when serious issues do crop up, they're often
crossposted to all N mailing lists, which makes it stand out a little.
...And some lists deliver faster than others...)
