Now, that's a rather interesting topic, and timely too.
Why is this happening?
Is it really all that bad?
Could it be seen as a way of releasing the talent to help create newer
organizations/ventures that can do a better job without being saddled with
the baggage of the past?
NOTE: before you subscribe to firewalls you may wish to check the archives
at http://www.greatcircle.com since it does attract its share of newbies
and people looking to buy or sell firewalls for their oddball NT/Novell
over token ring type networks. But it *IS* frequented by firewall
designers as well.
