The editor of the list has expressed a desire that the discussion move away from "away from a discussion of the merits and !merits of a particular operating system", so here's a contribution in a different vein. I am a recent subscriber to this list and also an educator. I teach primarily undergraduate courses, often the first and second semester courses, and I am very interested to hear from the list what you all consider to be important "secure coding" topics to cover in these first-year classes. Also, what topics to you feel should be covered in an undergraduate curriculum but later than the first year? To give you some context, our first-year sequence currently takes an OO approach, incorporating design patterns and discussions of the merits of alternative designs. We also introduce some team-based work in the second semester, and I am will begin to incorporate test-first practices (using JUnit) this coming spring semester. -- Carl Alphonce email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dept of Computer Science and Engineering phone: (716) 645-3180 x115 University at Buffalo fax: (716) 645-3464 Buffalo, NY 14260-2000 http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/~alphonce
