Organization for Internet Safety, Dead?

In the course of submitting a security vulnerability to a vendor today, I was referred to the “Organization of Internet Safety” guidelines for reporting (.pdf) security vulnerabilities to vendors.

No worries.

I downloaded it and gave it a read. The part that struck me was that is was released in September 2004. So, I went to check for a possible newer version but, that’s the one. The most recent press release on the site dates from 2004 as well. Has this organization (which, admittedly, I only loosely recall) gone toes up?

    Interesting. I had a look at the WHOIS for the domain and found that Symantec owns the domain.
