    So because Mitre proposes a "lame draft" you all of a sudden have a huge
    problem with them? Where in the draft did it say anything - or on
    Mitre's web site for that matter - that they collect zero days? I mean maybe I
    have to learn how to read better or pay more attention to Christey's talks
    but I have never heard of Mitre collecting code. AFAIK - they rely on
    outside information sources.

    That being said, even if they did collect zero days. how is that
    hypocritical? An example of hypocritical would be helping company find
    and bury security issues while spending all your time hacking their
    competing products....maybe thats not hypocritical and just unethical...
