I agree with you on AV firms, along with most software companies, not wanting on board with full disclosure. However, it doesn't appear that MARA has full disclosure as its number one objective either. What is there to gain by holding the code from the AV vendors? Personally I think their reasoning of wanting to ensure AV vendors are handling the code properly is a bit weak. Could it be that MARA is looking for a bit of publicity?
