Open source code isn’t a warranty

I seem to recall seeing some traffic about Fedora and Debian looking into that, but I don't recall any specifics off-hand. It would be a great article for this site, if you're willing to write it.

Martin, thanks for reading! You're absolutely right. Access to source code is an important precondition for security, but there's much more required beyond that.
