I love it.<BR/><BR/>Second, I also always love the open source advancements as well. The more I delve into this industry, the more I see the dichotomy of commercial giants hawking their wares and devices as opposed to what I almost call the people in the trenches who do things with open source tools, homegrown apps, and their own knowledge and desires. Not that one is better than the other, but I think the main difference is simply that "hacker" mentality that the media outlets don't seem to get (or want to "get") and those commercial marketing machines. Anyway, commendable to see things stay open, free, and driven by untainted ideals.<BR/><BR/>-LonerVamp (ohmigosh, I finally signed up)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15357840241031190415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088979.post-1153228866281533212006-07-18T09:21:00.000-04:002006-07-18T09:21:00.000-04:00Thank goodness openness still exists in the securi...Thank goodness openness still exists in the security arena. Leave security up to big companies like Microsoft and Symantec, they'd have everything kept as secrets while everyone gets cracked.<BR/><BR/>"Bot writers learning from open source"<BR/>http://www.techworld.com/security/news/index.cfm?newsid=6458&pagtype=allAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
