Suggestion: Concerning security issue that big like this, may be we can have a dedicated box on the front page of wiki to signal it and invite for update! What do you think about ? 2014-04-08 15:53 GMT+02:00 G. Schlisio <g.schlisio@dukun.de>:
I agree with Allan here :
I added this column in the wiki for tracking the responsiveness of the packagers to handling security issues to see where we can improve.
What matters for us to track is the time it takes for us to notice and for Arch packagers to fix the issue once it has been disclosed.
as a measure of arch linux' responsiveness i propose a title like "time known" or similar. i understand that this is an important thing to keep track of and fully support keeping this information. still, as an admin, i feel the importance of this "time vulnerable" (in the sense i explained bevore.
Finding how long a specific vulnerability has been available and exploitable is a generic information not related to Arch Linux.
I'm not against adding it to the wiki as a separated column.
By the way, there is another minor issue, the Update/Bug column has a double usage, maybe we should split this one in two.
any reason against splitting? for now we still have some space to the sides (at least at my setup).
thanks for considering.
