`03.Nov.2003` Chris Hodges (Website)	Poseidon: Unknown person spreads crack-instructions As the author of Poseidon, Chris Hodges, informs on his website, someone spread instructions how to crack his USB stack on three mailing-lists yesterday. According to Chris Hodges, this happened under the fake name "Dan Gaines" and, as a smokescreen, by using a freemailer in London as well as an anonymous proxy located in the UK. But the high amount of grammar mistakes in the posting would make it unlikely that this person was a native speaker. "Dan Gaines" would have been registered only a week ago, by which this seems to be a thoughtfully planned assault. As the author states, the effects on the development of Poseidon are still to be considered - but the effect on his motivation would have been already devastating. The further speculation by Chris Hodges regarding the background of this incident can be found on his website in the message from November 3. (snx) [News message: 03.
