No. Someone else posted the Bugtraq reference. The point isn't where
it was discussed. The point is that this has been discussed many times

subject for a while.

Now look at it from the perspective of folks who've watched this topic
over and over again and think about whether it's really too much to ask
for folks to whom this is new to go and do a little reading in mailing
list archives.
