I've got the following quote from Computerzeitung, but no direct URL:
| Bugtraq wird den Industrienormen f?r Security-Ver?ffentlichungen
| folgen, wie es das heute bereits tut. Es gibt immer Verz?gerungen,
| sogar bei Bugtraq: Die Sicherheitsl?cke muss verifiziert und der
| Hersteller alarmiert werden. Typischerweise r?umt man ihm immer eine
| Gef?lligkeitszeit ein, um einen Patch zu entwickeln. Diesen Standard
| werden wir beibehalten.
John Schwarz, Chief Operating Office, Symantec.
Approximate translation:
Bugtraq will follow the industry norms for security disclosures, like
it does now. There are always delays, even with Bugtraq: A security
vulnerability has to be verified, and the vendor has to be alarmed.
Typically, the vendor gets a grace period to develop a patch. We will
keep this standard.
(Sorry, English isn't my native tongue.)
