That to which gpatrick refers is for all reported linux ditributions.
  1. Does it state which distribution version is affected? No.
  2. Does it state which kernel version is affected? No.
  3. Does it state the severity of the problem or if the problem was solved? No.

It would be helpful and more informative if the data regarding the patches which worked and the time between the discovery of the holes & patching was displayed.

Java is can be installed on all systems and can be ported to unsupported architectures and systems using NFS export from a system that has Java support. It would be better to compare Java to Python and Perl than to Linux and Windows.

You are right in stating that security problems should be voiced and printed; however, an analogy should be of the same class and type.
Peaches to apricots and oranges to lemons- pit fruits compared and citrus fruits compared- rather than apples to oranges, you know?
