Does anyone else share my concern that the security patch process has
grounded to a halt since the middle of last year?
A rough count shows the following outstanding patches for the Win XP,
Service Pack 2 platform:
Aug 2007, 5 critical patches
Oct 2007, 2 critical, 1 important
Nov 2007, 1 critical
Dec 2007, 6 critical, 3 important
The reversed timeline as shown on the IPS web site:

Evalutation Testing
---------------------
The last time patches were released was in June 2007.
Can anybody from Invensys/Foxboro explain the reasoning behind "NEW
IMAGE NOT MADE AVAILABLE"?
