Then you need to run off and start your own list. Funny to see you 
complain about something that is useful (at least to some), and not 
about the moronic "flag"-waving that has been going on the past couple 
of days by the netdev creature. BTW, authorities at Yahoo have been 
notified; times will become more interesting for him.

We like this list the way it is; Full Disclosure means just that. If you 
don't like drinking from the firehose, Kurt's list is over there->

Not everyone on here is an administrator (of any kind), nor are they 
necessarily interested in following all the distros for Linux, SCO, 
Solaris, MacOS, Windows, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, LynxOS, OpenVMS... You get 
the picture. It all happens here, sonny.
