Attrtiion.org has announced it will no longer maintain its archive of Web site cracks and defacements. “In essence, what was once a hobby site run in spare time for
fun has turned into a beleaguring second job. A job that comes with more headache, complaints, criticisms, slander and attacks than productive output or
reward. In two years we have turned away countless computer security work that could have been fulfilled by a number of us. The abuse and ignorance we deal
with from defacers and defacement victims is staggering, and some of that abuse spills over into actual attacks. Attrition has been taken down more than once by
massive denial of service attacks which have inconvenienced our generous upstream provider, hundreds of other colo customers, and thousands of dialup
customers, making our job even more difficult.”

LinuxSecurity.com: “The office of the e-Envoy has awarded netproject a contract to examine how to achieve an Open Source PKI that
could be used in the second round of PKI interoperability trials to be conducted by the UK
Communications-Electronics Security Group (CESG) later this year.

‘The importance of this contract is that the UK Government has recognised the need for a vendor neutral entrant to
the PKI Interoperability Trials and because Open Source is free the initial survey and study is being funded by the
office of the e-Envoy.’ said Eddie Bleasdale, director of netproject.”

ZDNet eWEEK’s John Taschek comments on Microsoft VP Craig Mundie’s infamous speech: “So what was Mundie doing? He was trying to galvanize the market,
making sure that Microsoft is covering the bases, slowly announcing
the opening up of the Windows code base while reassuring the public
that Microsoft has been right all along. I also think he was trying to
irritate Torvalds.”

PR Newswire: “Sun Microsystems, Inc. today
announced that the NetBeans[tm] open source project (http://www.netbeans.org) has

(IDE) platform more complete and expand its appeal to a broader audience of
Java[tm] technology developers. The modules will streamline Java application
development and address a range of issues, including integration with Apache’s
“Ant” XML scriptable build tool, improved application server deployment
support and SOAP-based Web services generation and deployment.”

“We tried to tell the music industry about it (in 1995) but we were not able to get any other response than “that is nice, we’ll look at it.””” So says Karlheinz Brandenburg, inventor of MP3, the multimedia file format that has given the music industry a bad case of heartburn ever since. “Brandenburg said while his sympathies are with musicians, the industry hurt itself by failing to
offer a better alternative.” Full Reuters story at ZDNet.

ZDNet carries an Red Hat CTO Michael Tiemann’s rebuttal to an opinion piece it published last week, from Microsoft VP Craig Mundie. Among the choice quotes offered by Tiemann: “The fact that the GPL stands against a model that has
made one or many companies profitable means or refutes nothing. The fact that the GPL permits
a greater rate of innovation, with greater efficiency in terms of scarce resources means
everything.”
