Talk:Jack

[JSpaith:] You may want to consider jumping into your thesis about the coming software tools earlier. See Caroline's paper and how right away she tells us where she's going. You could still tie this the Internet Worm (or Slammer is better since the reader was probably bitten by it, but probably not on Internet in '88) that if we'd had these tools in 1988 or before SQL 2000 then there would be no story to tell and no bugs to patch. But since we didn't have these tools back then, we got in lots of trouble. Then tell us what went wrong with the details, then give us specifics about these tools.

--Jack Richins 16:12, 29 Nov 2004 (PST) After looking at how I'd reword this, I wonder if I need to provide such detail about the Morris worm and Slammer at all. Perhaps I should just mention them as reference points instead of going into detailed paragraphs describing them. Any other opinions?
