Hi Etienne,

I think you are reading too much into too little and that further discussion 
into the details you suggest is not appropriate for this list. I believe that 
developers on the -current list are serious people, wanting to remove problems 
in this world rather than create them. Exploits are possible when the 
developers are not given enough time to research good solutions. Maybe you 
want to support FreeBSD developers by donating some money via the FreeBSD 
foundation, so that we can do a better job, removing your fears of software 
exploits in interaction with humans :-)

--HPS

BTW: Our slogan is "The power to serve" and not "the power server" :-)
