Do we really need to be seeing advisories on alpha versions of software that
is under active development?  This is hardly a production-quality
application and even their own download statistics show that its
distribution has been very limited.

Furthermore, I don't see a bug report entry in their SourceForge project.
You did report this to them before you sent it to BugTraq, yes?
