I've been asked to comment on the tcpdump trojan and the pattern of increased attacks against open source software FTP sites. My first instinct is to reply with a simple "no comment". However, I wonder if this is a possible PR opportunity for a very carefully worded response from the FreeBSD community. Comments, suggestions?
