Fine; leave out the "From." I'm not passionately attached to any one format, just so it is clearer that the advisory is about the third-party software and not about FreeBSD. > Therefore I assume you are just wasting mine and everyone else's time >here, Your "assumption" is incorrect. I am quite busy and wouldn't waste my OWN time -- much less anyone else's -- if I didn't think the issue was important. Others have stated that they think it's important, too. >and will not reply to any further mails from >you about this matter. I think that you should address the issue for the sake of ALL of those who are concerned about FreeBSD's image, not just for my sake. >Thankyou for playing, goodnight! A summary dismissal such as the one above is not only bad form but shows a lack of concern for FreeBSD's reputation. Hopefully, instead of stomping off, you'll take note of people's concerns and do something about them. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
