Full Disclosure: Re: GeoIPgen version 0.4 released - country-to-IPs generator

[Andrew Horton <andrew () morningstarsecurity com>]

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for showing me Gnu Citizen's work. It seems they posted about using this technique a year
before the first publicly released version of GeoIPgen.

By the way, I want to make it clear that auenumerate isn't my project it just uses a couple of tools
I made.
