Apologies to those for whom this is getting old, but I think I'm learning something new here...

Addressed mostly to Nick and Solly.

So, one part of the concern is that mr. amateur malware author will get ahold of binaries and hexedit them into something new.

But, I'm hearing that the real concern is that if binaries, source, detailed analyses, etc... are posted, then the malware authors will learn to write better malware?

Is that the real problem?
