Wow, that didn't take long...<br><br>I released a draft of the Cirque du 0day CFP to a few closed channels a week or so ago, to float the idea around and see if anyone was interested in participating. Apparently Michael Chatner decided to hijack the idea and submit it to the public himself. Unfortunately the power supply died in my co-located box for <a href="http://caughq.org">caughq.org</a> last week and so I cannot currently respond from my usual email address, <a href="mailto:druid@caughq.org">druid@caughq.org</a>. Anyhow, any number of people can confirm that Michael Chatner's publication of the Cirque du 0day idea is illegitimate, including Jeff Moss whom I emailed about the idea a week and a half ago to get his opinion on whether or not the idea would be supported by the DEFCON organization and staff. You can expect a much more flushed out version of this CFP after my discussions with Jeff and the DEFCON staff are over, assuming the idea is a go.<br>
<br>I therefore must recommend that no one respond to Michael's illigitimate CFP for and claim to the Cirque du 0day idea, and rather shame him for being a huge poser. (:<br>
