Of course, this sounded familiar - Amit Yoran resigned in 2004. ACM Tech
News picked up today's MSNBC article, which was removed within the day. At first, I thought this was déjà vu all over again, but it must have been an
honest mistake. This is what ACM sent, AP cite and today's date:

U.S. Cybersecurity Chief Abruptly Resigns

Associated Press (06/28/06)

Giving just one day of notice, the U.S. government's cybersecurity chief
resigned from the Department of Homeland Security after holding the post for one year. Amit Yoran's resignation comes amid strident calls from technology leaders and some lawmakers to broaden the range of his authority and give
him more money for protection initiatives. ...

Today's news covers the new cybersecurity chief (Andy Purdy), about his pay differential with Chertoff. He is "on loan" from CMU - will he quit as well?
