Subject: Morning Wood Poll

The morning wood posts themselves are not what annoy me.  It is the barrage
of posts that follow that do.  Both sides of this argument are guilty.  The
anti-wood party posts how Morning Wood is a moron after he posts then the
pro-wood party responses by calling that person a moron.  It just keeps
going until I have 40 e-mails that can be summed by "Am Not" and "Are Too".

I like the idea for two full-disclosure lists one for disclosures and one
for discussions.

I've already cast my vote, but I think a simple yes/no is not sufficient for
the real solution.

The real solution is to have a fully open full-disclosure mailing list, only
for full-disclosure.  People not disclosing vulnerabilities or bugs would be
warned then banned on repeat offenses.  

To resolve the issue of ongoing correspondence regarding disclosures made on
the full-disclosure list, there would be a full-disclosure-DISCUSSION list.
That would be the 'noise' list, that would contain 99% of what is currently
in full-disclosure.

This post should go to the discussion list.  Many of Morning Wood's posts
would hopefully go to the discussion list, with the disclosures he's made
going to the full-disclosure list.

Would the addition of a discussion list, and the policy change for the
full-disclosure list, really cramp anyone's freedom of speech or the value
of the full-disclosure list?
