<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>I got both at the same time
because I checked email and Drupal.org about the same time. Simplenews
sends email for x time per cron run. The Security list is sent via
Simplenews to allow for integration. In reality, there is no secure method
to ensure that 'legitamte' site admins get notifications before hackers
do.</FONT></DIV>

Please coordinate OFF LIST with the security team for a model you think would be
more better faster stronger.</FONT></DIV>
