OK, All the mud slinging is getting really silly (on *both* sides). There's no need to
denigrate others because you don't agree with them. There's no point in arguing about who
isn't a team player or who works for which evil multinational corporation. Nobody is attacking
anybody else by suggesting that Suhosin is or is not critical, and none of that really matters
anyway.
I may have missed something, but has anyone asked *why* the patch was disabled? I think I could make
a good guess, but I haven't seen even the slightest hint of the actual reasons in this email
chain (though I could easily have missed it entirely).
IMO we should try to focus on:
1. What are the pros vs. cons of enabling the Suhosin patch by default?
2. Why did the Debian team opt to disable it?
3. Are there better solutions that should be considered and recommended?
