Ah yes, the Politics of Security rears its head.

From the looks of it, this "trojan" was meant to be found: far
to clumsy
and obvious to be otherwise. 

Why?  One can only speculate, but I'd hazard a guess that
someone
with access to the U of A's sunsite has a vested interest in
defaming
Open Source systems and software.  

So, who has lately claimed that Open Source is Evil and
Anti-Capitalist?

Nahh, couldn't be.  That would mean bribes and blackmail.  

Mebbe the problem is that info really isn't Capital at all, and
the bluff
might be called.

Duncan Patton a Campbell is Duibh ;-)
