>this should make openssl stronger in the end though
Challenge is the only reliable way to develop security. The open approaches are thus likely to be more secure than proprietary alternatives -- at least in the long run.
Unless, of course, no software company has ever had a disgruntled, dishonest, fired, etc employee.

I don't think that's the case here. I think that the OpenSSL team does know the reasons and probabely keeps it under wraps untill they issue a patch.

“Now the opposing forces have the luxury of going in and trying to pick us apart,” he said. “That’s fine. That’s fair. This is about dollars and cents. This is not about technology.” "
this speaks volumes - sort of reminds of Massachusetts and odf. hmm-
this should make openssl stronger in the end though. but this makes me wonder about the process and the other proprietary products and how good they actually are.
