+I can see security at groups.mageia.org can be set as bug assignee in
+bugzilla now, so the discussion is null at this point.
+
+About the "better explanation", the benefits of having one generic
+email address set as assignee in security-related bug reports, just
+one point, not having one point of failure, if the only person in the
+sec team becomes unavailable for a prolonged period of time for any
+reason, someone will have to trudge through the bug reports assigned
+to him to change the assignee field, whereas if a generic email
+address is used that won't be necessary.
