  1. Re:The failing of Open Source on Interbase Backdoor, Secret for Six Years, Revealed in Source · · Score: 1

    .. BS score 100/100.

    The source has been open since July 25 2000. It has (I forget how many) million lines of code and no tree documentation.

    You find out not because the company chose to tell you but because it was discovered in an Open Source security review and reported to the CERT Coordination Center.

    Be grateful for the thousand eyes, public watchdog bodies that are concerned about Internet security and software development that craves perfection and openness without the impediment of commercial expediency.

    Good to see you have a copy of 'Teach Yourself C in Two Minutes'. Every VBScripter should have one :)) Err - **whose** web site? Firebird's web site is at http://firebird.sourceforge.net. The InterBase2000 site is the InterBase community website.
