[ale] OT-news bit on Homeland Security (a little old)

[dhurst at kennesaw.edu (Dow Hurst)]

I had promised to post this after talking with some folks at last week's 
ALE-NW meeting.

BEGIN##########

Bill's secrecy provisions stick
Last-minute efforts by Senate Democrats to strip
objectionable secrecy provisions from the homeland
security bill apparently failed Nov. 18. Language
added to the bill by the House of Representatives
would block the disclosure of information about
technology vulnerabilities through the Freedom of
Information Act. Attempts to remove the language
seemed certain to fail even as the Democrats
wrestled to remove other provisions they dislike.
