I guess they're going to take security a bit more seriously now? hehe

Read the Debian Investigation Report After Server Compromises at <http://linuxtoday.com/security/2003120202726SCDBSV>. They've /always/ taken security seriously. The wisest approach to is to assume that you're going to get 0wn3d and plan accordingly. Ask yourself: if this were a certain proprietary company, would this news leak out so quickly, and would said organization publish a detailed post-mortem as soon as one is available? I think that Debian getting 0wn3d demonstrates not only that the FS community is committed to security but that this commitment actually pays off. ~ C -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
