Hi Sir Mordred,
Forwarded your email on to that same "PostgreSQL Hackers" mailing list
(didn't seem to be anything confidential in it), just to let everyone
know that things will be ok from here on, etc.
No-one would generally even think to take credit for your work, as the
people in our community are the decent up-front kind of folk, and we
welcome your assistance and expertise in helping us find the
vulnerabilities in PostgreSQL.
So, yep, it's all cool with us.
:-)
Regards and best wishes,
Justin Clift
