NAI is incorrect in asserting that the current public release
of MMDF is 2.43. That version has been outdated for over 5 years.
Folks interested in MMDF might check out "http://www.mmdf.org".
The current public release of MMDF is in fact the 2.44 release
(available from: ftp://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/pub/Sources/mail+news/mmdf/)
While its helpful to have the issue noted, it would have been even
more helpful to have the issue noted to the MMDF community prior
to the announcement on BugTraq via the MMDF mailing list or
privately to the current MMDF maintainers at uni-kl.
Yours,

PS: I'm impressed with the amount of marketing that NAI managed
to get into their BugTraq posting.
