I am another user who was under the impression that security problems
would be posted to this list when found, rather than after they are
fixed. Oh well.
Someone mentioned a yahoo groups list for bug announcements (rather
than fixes) could we get details of that placed on the page:
http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/lists.xml
And given that a sample of people on this list, me included, seem to
have misunderstood the list details, maybe an update is in order.

I think there has been an indication that a number of people are
interested in such a list. Maybe if bugzilla is upto it it could be a
worthy list where ONLY bugzilla can post, creating a little more
signal. ;)
Maybe rather than another round of 'discussion' about people
we should discuss the creation of:
gentoo-security-discussion@
gentoo-security-announce@
gentoo-security-resolved@
or atleast this new list that it seems a few people would be
interested in.
Ill leave:
gentoo-security-namecalling@
for later :) <-- Note ':)'
