Re: Issues for configuration problems in the CVE



When I first had a student (Taimur Aslam) look at classifications of 
problems, configuration errors fell out as one category.  However, we 
found there were some ambiguities with user interface error, and 
incorrect documentation.   If something is misconfigured because the 
documentation is unclear (or wrong), is that a bug?   If so, where? 
In the software that doesn't match the documentation, or in the 
documentation that doesn't match the software?

Sorry to raise these questions, but you are seeing some of the 
territory we traversed a few years back..... :-)
