Why has this not happened yet? This has been a known problem for quite
a long time...
The answer is simple: Not everybody can become a security team member,
the required technical skills are quite high. There is a VERY high
commitment requirement as well, so even some of the skilled people do
not become part of the security team. Besides _that_, most people
agree that creating new code is more fun than patching existing code,
so even less people step into that position.
Remember this is a volunteer project. I know of no extra volunteers
willing to take up such a task as Security. You repeatedly talk about
adding man-power to it. So... Are you in?
