So we have two representatives for Red Hat (Mark and Josh).Limiting a distro to two or three representatives is going to make things tricky for Red Hat; we have a rather large dedicated security response team (as we publish over 300 advisories a year across 70 product/versions and have a number of folks dealing with 'incoming' issues spread, and my team is dispersed across 9 different countries). If these representatives have been very active on v-s and oss-security is there a reason to limit?Similar for SUSE. We currently have 3 engineers rotating through the incident manager role (and myself).
Same for Ubuntu. Limiting membership to two representatives would mean a lot of email from the list is going to be forwarded to the other members of our security team. Although limiting membership may seem like a good idea to contain leaks, having to forward email to non-members because of an arbitrary limitation would surely defeat that goal.
