   So again you repeat you claims that a vendor such as sun is not =
responsible for releasing fixes for software it releases in its products =
if it doesn't own the copyright for that software.  Does your employer =
agree with your position?

   It's also interesting that now you are claiming that all =
vulnerabilities in software running on linux count as linux problems.  =
This is different from what you were claiming earlier and just as =
ridiculous.

  I have no problem with that. I have no problem with distributors =
packaging &
  distributing fixes (it's what a distributor does). I have a problem =
with
  expecting distrbutors to do the fixes to someone elses software &/or =
copping
  the blame for it.

  If there's problem in product x & it runs on linux then it's a linux
  vulnerability.=20
