thanks a lot for your motivating words. In short: If you would like to know
more about the security reviews, just watch the most recent video podcast
[1] Kasper and I made about this topic. If you want to help with the
security reviews, you'd have to be a member of the security team. And in
order to become one, you have to be really sure that you want to stay there
and be active for a while.

Cheers,
robert
