    Wow, this post most looks most informative, maybe even insightful, doesn't it? In fact, There is very little true about it. Lets take a look here...

    1) "POSIXX" (sic) "IEEE 811.2b", "Level 4 security". What the hell? It sounds like these were pulled out of the guy's arse.

    2) "Hash implementation ...prior backdoors". Bzzzt. Wrong.

    3) "New implementation of the TCP/IP stack ... replace from the 4.3.xx series". No, the TCP/IP stack was not replaced, and there was no 4.3.xx series. I won't even quote the rediculous crap at the end of that line.

    The guy also claims that he is an ex-core team member. This is a highly dubious claim given the junk contained in the post and screename of "Bob Abooey". So in short.... there's nothing to see here, folks. Move along.
