-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- In message <4.1.19990916213429.05c081e0@granite.sentex.ca> Mike Tancsa writes: : Just looking at the release notes, and I think there is a small error : : ------------ : The proftpd port has been updated with the latest patches to prevent : possible remote root exploits. : ------------ : : Was it not marked 'unsafe' instead ? It was an oversight on my part. I should have changed the release notes. Right before the ports freeze (litterally a few hours) it was discovered that there were security holes in proftpd. So, rather than have that in the 3.3 release disk, I asked Michael Haro to mark it as forbidden since it could not be fixed before the release deadline. It had already been updated once to fix security problems. It was my mistake that I didn't go back and fix the release notes.
