    + +Kurt Seifried talks about what people can do to promote security and +protect themselves against the now-commonplace attacks. His first +suggestion is for software vendors to audit code like OpenBSD did, but he +feels that the effort and demand for knowledgeable programmers is too +great for this approach to succeed. Instead, he suggests add-ons such as +various Linux patches, development tools and replacement libraries. We +think he gave up too easily: by accepting mudflaps in the place of +airbags, he is taking the heat off software vendors to clean up the +defects in their products. +

    + +Rich Morin puts the 80's UNIX history of fragmentation in perspective by +examining the creative tensions between the five operating systems derived +from 4.4BSD-Lite. Rather than repeating the platitude of how the BSD-derived +operating systems should unite, Morin's Silicon Carny column shows that the +projects and companies cooperate even though they have diverging goals. And +now that Sun has cautiously moved to open source some of its source, how +will the open source world react, he asks. +
