+    <p>The Samba Team is happy to report that Samba is now free from 
+    <a href="http://coverity.com/main.html">Coverity</a> reported defects!</p>
+    
+    <p>Coverity recently ran a scan of open source projects, which included
+    Samba's TRUNK branch.  Coverity's site describes 
+    <a href="http://scan.coverity.com/">their scan</a> as:</p>
+    
+    <blockquote>
+    [...] a new baseline for software quality and security in open source based 
+    on the analysis of over 30 of the most critical and widely used open source 
+    projects in the world. Under a contract with the Department of Homeland 
+    Security, we apply the latest innovation in automated defect detection to 
+    uncover some of the most critical types of bugs found in software.
+    </blockquote>
+    
+    <p>The initial scan reported 216 bugs in Samba.  In a week and a half,
+    Samba Team developers have fixed all reported bugs.  These changes
+    will be applied to the next 3.0.x release.</p>
