    This may come as a surprise to you, but there are people on
    the freebsd-hackers mailing list who are not on the relevant
    NetBSD mailing lists, but who are still interested in CGD
    and who are likely candidates to do a 3rd party audit of CGD.
    Developers from BSD communities share code and ideas and they
    do peer reviews and audits from which everyone in the BSD
    communities benefits. There might be some heated discussions
    at times, but that's normal and as long as some good comes
    out of such discussions they can't be all bad, they make
    people work harder and focus more attention on issues that
    need to be improved. The fact that you posted inflammatory
    comments after falsely assuming that my motivation was the
    same as yours when replying to my post is more than ironic.

    I notified the author and other people in BSD communities who are
    most likely to be interested in knowing about this and improving
    CGD. You may want to start paying attention and reading before you
    post or you could just apply a patch and take your own (TM) advice.
