RE: Fixed IOS datestamps?

["Matthew Kaufman" <matthew () eeph com>]

I had the same problem, with no resolution from any of my contacts yet
either (perhaps they're busy?)... In my case, 12.2(14)S is a recommended
option for 7200s (but built a while back), but that leaves me wondering
about 12.2(14)S2 and 12.2(14)S3 (the last of which was at least built
recently).

Perhaps someone on the list has already compiled a quick "here's a good set
of releases for ISPs" list that covers the obvious router choices?

I'm also having trouble deciphering whether or not there's an "old enough"
release that isn't affected by the bug for 2511 and 2611, since the bug tool
data isn't the same as the vulnerability announcement list.
