Vladimir,
It really is a serious problem and I am worried about it. The company I work
for has contracted out the software testing and contracted cost is 8 million
dollars for verification of the software we have source code for. This
problem will even effect things like elevators and environmental controls in
buildings. When our networks and software comes crashing down, I am the one
that MUST get it back up. I can see many many sleepless nights to get
through this one....
