That might be a good idea, I had the impression they didn't really know 
how to inform package maintainers properly - TBH, neither do I (I'm not 
involved in ioq3, but in other open source game ports).
Is there a mailing list or something similar for security issues that 
reaches package maintainers of all distros?

Cheers,
Daniel
