[2006-05-13.00:46:11] <bilbo> Okay so I'm reading these research papers ... formal papers published in journals etc [2006-05-13.00:46:30] <bilbo> Many of them cite, "Smashing The Stack For Fun And Profit", by Aleph One [2006-05-13.00:46:49] <bilbo> And I'm thinking, "wtf, ... that's his name? Man, that'd be an awesome name, but that just seems too strange." [2006-05-13.00:46:58] <bilbo> it's a friggen alias [2006-05-13.00:47:21] <bilbo> So apparently it's okay to cite articles by people using online aliases in formal papers now. hahaha [2006-05-13.00:47:31] <bilbo> There are LOTS of papers citing this too [2006-05-13.00:47:36] <bilbo> it's here http://www.insecure.org/stf/smashstack.txt [2006-05-13.00:48:12] <bilbo> granted it's a pretty good article [2006-05-13.00:52:02] <bilbo> Of course, if all the important articles are citing it, mine should too, because it's important too. ;) [2006-05-13.00:55:37] <bilbo> gawd, the citations even mention Phrack. It's quite a coup in a way :)
