Hi Eric,

Without getting in unnecessarily re-opening old wounds, if you have=20
examples of what has caused material harm to the community, it can be=20
interesting to share.
From experience with second-layers, as soon as you start to have many=20
codebases affected by a vuln, it's another kind of dynamics so good to draw=
=20
lessons.

stepping up.

About the timing, among many factors, the bitcoin whitepaper assignment=20
legal issue is hopefully less a concern now so some competent people have=
=20
more time to handle that job of publicly disclosing security bugs. In=20
addition, the bitcoin open-source landscape has more resources (for the=20
best and worst) than 10 years ago. From sharing beers with Amir not so=20
lately, it wasn't that +10 years ago. I know he was kicked-off from the=20
original sec list, though I'm not sure the reasons are well-known.

Best,
Antoine
