Hi Greg and Dominique,
We'd better reach an agreement about the patch fix. In my opinion,
replacing strlen(chan->tag) with a local variable sounds reasonable, and
changing strncmp to strcmp may be little beneficial, as strcmp is more
dangerours such as buffer-flow. So I'd like to hear your suggestion for
the next version of the patch, or this patch is good enough?
Thanks,
Jun
