I'm not asking for a flaming (so keep your cool guys & gals ;-), but I
receive quite a few security advisories every month on the Debian security
list.

I think security issues will always be found in every piece of software, M$
or Free.

If the security patches ever stop coming, I for one will get worried that
nobody is making sure my software is safe & secure.

Now, I'm off to do my system upgrades (Debian Sarge), 133 packages to be
upgraded over the last couple weeks, (kinda puts the hundreds of patches
quote into perspective).
