Chris Evans is a nice enough guy, but maybe things would be a little
more secure if he didn't take the attitude "Well, I knew about this
for over a year and I didn't tell anyone, so I guess it's no surprise
it hasn't got fixed."

Chris managed to completely paralyse Oxford-Cambridge hacker relations
by asking Ian Jackson what Linux distribution he used.
(Ian Jackson was head of the Debian project at the time.)
