Bug Bounty [noise]

Something I noticed about the Netscape Bug Bounty that seems to not have
been mentioned here...

        "Linux users need not apply."

(Check the rules as to which versions qualify and see what I mean.)

  If a linux user finds a security hole that is reproducible in
any supported version then they are still eligible for the prizes.
If a linux user finds a security hole that only applies to linux,
I don't know what the company would do, but I would push for them
being payed as well.
