- My understanding is that both the CIAC Bulletin and the Sun Security
- list announcement were worked on jointly by Sun and DOE CIAC staff and
- the result was disseminated separately to both communities of
- interest. It is not a case of CIAC claiming credit for Sun's work, nor
- of Sun claiming credit for CIAC's. In fact, the Sun bulletin
- acknowledges the efforts of a member of the CIAC staff, and
- correspondingly this CIAC bulletin cites Ken Pon's work and
- assistance.
-
- I receive the CIAC bulletins by e-mail and have begun posting them here
- since there seems to be some difficulty in getting them into
- comp.security.announce (where they belong). Hopefully this will be
- solved in the future.
