[mapserver-dev] "Security/Vulnerability (Private)" tickets are not private

Doesn't sound like we could turn on Trac for just this purpose. I kinda like the idea of private mailing list (mapserver-security) paired with whatever tracking makes sense for the issue at hand.

Sorry Even, your email slipped past with the weekend.
That label was automatically imported with the trac migration, and is effectively useless as github doesn't have private issues. The trac instance is set to read-only, however opening it back up might probably be a source of confusion if there are two distinct issue trackers.  I'm open as to how we should treat those: a private psc/security mailing list, a shared googledoc, others?

regards,
thomas
