Subject: Daniel Geer, author of cybersecurity resigns

As many of you may or may not know, a report was released which was highly
critical of M$. The lead author of this report was Daniel Geer, CTO of
@stake. @stake is a partner in the Trustworthy Computing Initiative. Soon
after this report was released, Mr.. Geer was given his walking papers. I
believe that Microsoft had a hand in his resignation, and as such represents
a bad precedent.

While I do not believe this group should abandon its efforts to secure the
Windows OS, this news is very troubling to me.

Enclosed is copy of the report for all to read.

Regards,

Edward W. Ray
