Hello Chris, Thomas, Jay,

Thanks for releasing these security updates. Is it maybe possible that
the developers decide on a common subject format for update
notifications? Since all these three are security related the tag
[SECURITY] would have been a nice add on.

Also the subjects vary in more ways. Two are speaking of Fedora Core,
but only one also mentions the release. Something like
[SECURITY] Fedora Core <release> Update: <package>
would be a good solution.

Such a subject format of course has to be communicated to all
developers. Another solution would be to set up a central organ that
would release all security update notifications. Something like a Fedora
Security Announcement Team (F-SAT).

Leonard.
