(responding to just this paragraph, not that it really matters) Well, *I* have a key with *Delete* on it; does that make me more important? Let's discuss the merits of "delete" versus "Delete", and I'll commit 20 classes with 4200 lines in 3.7 hours to change this on everyone's keyboard. But, actually, yeah, for something as low-level critical as security, anything less than a week of discussion is completely right out. If it is going to affect *all* code *everywhere*, then you have to allow for *everyone* to have time to comment on it. Not everyone is paid to work directly on ofbiz; some do it in their spare time. This means at least 2 weekends of waiting. Sometimes, even a month, so you can get all the various eyes on it. This is something I learned in my long association with Debian.
