Week of Windows Vista bugs?
On the Full Disclosure mailing list comes this announcement from a group of anonymous security researchers: During one week (2007-04-02/08), new undisclosed vulnerabilities / flaws / exploitation techniques discovered in the latest versions of the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system and softwares will be publicly disclosed on this page. This project is launched as a challenge by an unofficial team of security experts.

No more details will be provided before the beginning of TWOVB.
As with the Month of MySpace Bugs announcement, take with a grain of salt.
[UPDATE: April 3, 2007] That grain of salt would have been very useful. This was, as I suspected, a hoax aimed at the pen-testing the IT media. From what I've seen, the media came through just fine.
