A hard disk crash, eh? Most unfortunate. At least that's something I
can accept. It doesn't help as far as getting my hands on the material,
but it's something I can deal with. The not knowing is the worst part.
HITB should realize there's a difference between "swamped" and "up the
creek". I hope they manage to recover their data from the disk and/or
get the presenters to re-submit their material. They still should have
said something to the effect of "Due to technical difficulties..."

Thanks for the update and the link. From what I understand the LSD group
will soon be posting some material about the 'doze RPC vulns on their
website.
