75 +Starting Feb 2, 2012, we have decied to no longer CC any third parties.
76 +The gentoo-announce mailing list has little other traffic, so that they
77 +should be subscribed there. General security mailing lists such as full-
78 +disclosure or bugtraq are not our target audience, and having various
79 +distributions send notices about the same issues is not of any use to most
80 +readers there, they too should be on gentoo-announce.
