For those who don't follow bugtraq (that closely): May I attract
your attention to the following article? It should be in the
archives at securityfocus.com and maybe available at your
favourite search engine.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Since I vaguely remember the "two different kinds of advisories"
thread (not that I would like to revive it:) and the most notable
idea from it on creating an RFC or a similar template for "how to
report these things" (resulting in a probably increased
completeness of the report, the report suiting even for automatic
processing and undoubtably easier reception for human minds) I
feel this could be of interest to whoever was involved in this
thread then. I didn't keep track of who made the suggestion.
But I'm glad now there's obviously a partner to talk to with very
likely open ears for this kind of contributing input. :) I take
it that bugtraq is a more promising forum for this due to its
cross platform nature. And the securityfocus staff should be
more than willing to save their own time, especially when it's
about their voluntary service.
