Nitification? Is that like when someone informs you that have a nit to
pick? :)

I've found that Securina is pretty good about getting notices out the
door, and they certainly don't hold back on volume. That might be a bad
thing for some folks.

Oracle's notices are pretty prompt. And Sun does a good weekly summary.

MS... Well... They USED to do ok, but now they're making it just less and
less useful...
