My impression is that the role of providing neutral ground for organizations like CERTs should/can be taken over by federations like EurOpen for Europe and the respective national groups like EurOpen.SE (Sweden), GUUG (Germany), NLUUG (The Netherlands) & UKUUG (United Kingdom) and the others.
Would that really be a good idea? Those organisations are to my knowledge purely Unix oriented. Would they be very interested in pursuing security problems with VAX/VMS, MS Windows and MacOS? No, it has to be an independent organisation. Actually, it shouldn't even be related to networking, but to *computing*!
