12. This is a SecurityFocus Bug ID.
13. This is a US-CERT security advisory.
14. This is a US-CERT vulnerability note.
15. This is a US-CERT Cyber Security Alert.
16. This is a US-CERT Technical Cyber Security Alert.

patch for porters-handbook

The vuxml example in ther Porter's handbook is already kind of dated; most IDs are no longer in use. I've removed those and added some more relevant links in this patch.

Apologies. I had another previous patch in the file that was not supposed to go in there.
