  1. I got a rejection letter already! by Rupert · · Score: 3

    Thank you for your proposal to review Carnivore for us. We feel that Rupert's Independent Software Reviews Inc., while possessing all the technical requirements of the RFP, is insufficiently independent to perform the review. We base this conclusion on the fact that you have been known to use email (we can prove this!) and thus have a vested interest in the outcome.

    Yours faithfully,

    Janet Reno.

    P.S. You did, however, get First Post. Congratulations.

    Some of the bureaucrat-speak in the 60-page RFP is lots of fun. I wonder how many potential "offerors" will be tripped up by that requirement for a "Certificate of Toxic Chemical Release Reporting?"

    Read the page, pass on the URL, and link to it from your own pages.

    And yes I know there's a broken link on the page, I've got the correct one but haven't had a chance to update it yet.

  4. Theo and the rest of OpenBSD by bluGill · · Score: 2

    Face it, their is only one name that comes to mind when someone thinks of comptuer review: openBSD.

    Therefore lets get theo and the rest of his team to review Carnivore. That they are Canada based only helps to assure they will be independant.
