Hi Solar, The encrypted thread is a single thread with a high volume of messages. The later part of the thread loses the context of you explicitly asking for a response. Coupled with the holiday weekend, that meant when I read through the thread I read too quickly and missed your explicit request. Had you changed the subject of the thread for the request, it would have been noticed immediately but I don't mean to point too many fingers here. Regards, Anthony Liguori ________________________________________ From: Solar Designer <solar () openwall com> Sent: Thursday, June 1, 2017 11:19 AM To: oss-security () lists openwall com Subject: Re: [oss-security] unresponsive distros Anthony, On Thu, Jun 01, 2017 at 06:03:59PM +0000, Liguori, Anthony wrote:
Hrm, I've been following the thread but apparently missed your request Solar.
Wow, that was quick. I don't see how you could have been following the thread, including in the period since May 27, and miss the request, since most other distros replied to that very same thread. With the replies quoting parts of my request, it was many messages. I mentioned the 3 non-responsive distros by name in two messages - yesterday and today (a few hours before bringing this to oss-security). What was it about the oss-security posting that made you notice it, unlike the many messages on the distros list? Is it the encryption that causes you not to read some messages, or to postpone doing so (for days)? With such selective reading, you'd also miss some new issues that are being brought up as part of this same thread. The Subject stays since it's unencrypted, but discussion deviates and expands to new topics. Thanks, Alexander
