Hi people, It would like to leave here a "protest" against the Security Officer Team of the FreeBSD. I know what it was not an imperfection of Core, more, this "problem" already could have been communicated the administrators of servers who has as time zone the BRT. In the last sunday, the servers that they use the time zone BRT had had its advanced clocks in 1 hour, moving for BRST, as if in the Brazil the summer time was started. I detected this "problem" and i made one bug report telling the problem. The Greg Lehey returned me an email saying that it could not make nothing because who had only been I had communicated of the problem. I showed it page to it of the Brazilian Government informing on the beginning of the summer time here in the Brazil and it it did not return the email. In the following day I made one patch to be able to solve this problem and sent for freebsd-bugs. Again nobody said swims, only the Andrew Brown answered me sending one patch to correct. Detected the DST problem, because the Security Team did not notify? It will be that this error for being of did not enteresse of administrators of servers who twirl in the E.U.A do not deserve that he is notified? It did not want that it made mention to my name, nor that patch was used mine, only that was communicated to all of the occurrence. The correction already was made in default branch, now goes to wait for more how much time it goes for RELENG_4 Regards, Vitor de Matos Carvalho System Network Administrator - Softinfo Network FreeBSD - The Power To Serve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
