Hi all,

- From /.
"LWN has an article by Bruce Perens outlining a
possible attack on Open Source: the Trojan Horse. The
idea is that malicious patches could be contributed to a
program from an unworthy source, later to be exploited."

From: http://lwn.net/1998/1119/Trojan.html
"Expand the Web of Trust. Contact your local Linux Users Group,
and have a knowledgable person instruct
members in public-key cryptography and run a public key
cross-signing session regularly at their meetings."

Something TLUG should be doing?
