  34 <PRE>     Is this an actual, existing problem or a hypothetical question?  If
  35 it's an actual, existing problem, please send me details privately; I'm
  36 still in town until Tuesday evening.  If it's a hypothetical question,
  37 the answer is nobody, you'll just have to hack something together until I
  38 get back if such a case should arise.

  44 &gt;<i>Hi,
  45 </I>&gt;<i>
  46 </I>&gt;<i>Imagine somebody found a bug in ircservices, allowing users to crash
  47 </I>&gt;<i>them and (probably) execute code on the server, who should I report it
  48 </I>&gt;<i>to, since the main coder in on holliday ?
  49 </I>&gt;<i>
  50 </I>&gt;<i>Who has the power to release new versions ?
  51 </I>&gt;<i>
  52 </I>&gt;<i>The problem is that the vulnerability is in other software too, and
  53 </I>&gt;<i>releasing it about other software might lead people to discover it in
  54 </I>&gt;<i>ircservices and exploit it.
  55 </I>&gt;<i>
  56 </I>&gt;<i>Waiting until Andrew's return isn't a valid solution, since the
  57 </I>&gt;<i>vulnerability might already be used.
  58 </I>&gt;<i>
