You mentioned you are going to give out an Ubuntu disk at the talk
you're giving. Are you aware of this?:
http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-262-1
If you're giving them a Breezy installation disk, you should be sure to
mention this vulnerability. It's pretty bad.
Ubuntu is (rightly, I think) being raked over the coals at Slashdot for
this oopsy. I can't believe nobody caught it for five months.
Linux "security" is not all it's cracked up to be, all the time, for
every distro.
