> > About the talk:
> >
> > On September 15 2003, VeriSign added a DNS wildcard to the COM
> > and NET zones. On September 17, ISC released a patch to BIND that
> > allows our users to filter out the effects of these wildcards. In
> > this extemporaneous talk, Paul Vixie of ISC will explain what
> > happened, who's upset about it, and why.

> > About the speaker:
> >
> > Paul Vixie was the last maintainer of BIND4, the main author of
> > BIND8, and an architect of BIND9. After cofounding MAPS (an
> > anti-spam company) and having some some excellent adventures in
> > DotBombLand, he returned to ISC in May 2002 as its full time
> > president. Paul holds the record for "most CERT advisories due to
> > a single author", and no longer writes code that other people
> > will see.
