Hello All,

        Rather than canceling your membership (though I share your
displeasure), may I recommend expressing your sentiments to the editor
of IEEE Security & Privacy?  After all, WE are the IEEE!!!

Best regards.

Subject: Any IEEE Security&Privacy readers here?

How stupid! Just got my latest IEEE Security&Privacy issue (vol.2,
nb.6, Nov/Dec 2004), and in the end of the "Honeynet Files" section I
just read this:

"A final farewell - Regular readers of The Honeynet Files department
will notice its absence in upcoming issues. The department has been
discontinued to allocate additional space [my note: what!?!? for the 2
1/2 pages it takes?!?] to content of interest to a wider audience. On
behalf ... [bla,bla,bla]"

I guess just by doing that IEEE lost me next year as a subscriber to
this magazine, and probably as a member - and I am pretty sure some of
my peers, also, with whom I was debating this change, just today, and
who were sharing my opinion ... Point to make: if the
honeypot/net/token technologies do not have room in a magazine of a
reputable group, focused on security, than what's to be expected form
the other ones ?!?

Oh, well ...
