Yeah, I'd like for my country to accummulate all the available computer 
security knowledge too...one heck of a competative advantage to have.

Pity the US is so busy scaring the population that they have no time to
come up with ideas like this...

> Summary
> =======
> SecurityForest.com is a collaboratively edited Forest consisting of Trees 
> which anyone can contribute to. SecurityForest's trees are specific security 
> repositories that are categorized for practical reasons. The technologies 
> currently in use in these repositories are based on Wiki technology and CVS 
> (Concurrent Versioning System) technology. Depending on the species of the 
> tree - the suitable technology will be used. SecurityForest.com is a 
> collection of repositories (trees) for the community - by the community. In 
> other words - the updating, modifying and improving can be done by anyone in 
> the community.
> This public release is posted at

> 
> The Open Source Idea
> ====================
> The basic idea behind Open Source is very simple: When people can read, 
> modify and improve a piece of software, the software evolves. People improve 
> it, people adapt it, people fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if 
> one is used to the slow pace of conventional development, seems astonishing.
> We at SecurityForest have learned that this rapid evolutionary process 
> produces better results than the traditional closed model, in which only very 
> few people improve the Security Repositories and everybody else must use what 
> these individuals have come across and added. SecurityForest is not only 
> based on OpenSource software, but itself is opensource meaning the updating, 
> modifying and improving can be done by anyone in the community.
