+    	<blockquote>
+    	"My impression is that the open source community is producing software 
+    	defect patches at an extremely fast rate," Ben Chelf, the chief technology 
+    	officer at Coverity, said in the statement.

+    	<p>Samba is mentioned specifically, too.</p>
+    	
+    	<blockquote>Samba, a popular open source project used to connect Linux 
+    	and Microsoft Windows networks, showed the fastest developer response, 
+    	Coverity said. The number of flaws was reduced from 216 to 18 in one week 
+    	and to zero in two weeks.</blockquote>
