IMHO: The sudden halt of funding for CVE at MITRE [1] creates an opportunity to "free" the critical task of managing vulnerabilities from its current US focus and move towards a more decentralised and transparent solution.
But for now it also means that I will subscribe to full-disclosure [2] again. Which has always been the messy, chaotic and loud cousin of Bugtraq [3] ;)

As a first step the process of becoming a CNA (CVE Numbering Authority) [1] should be distributed, not centralised. That's the biggest SPOF (Single Point of Failure) IMHO. Right now a lot of exclusive power with regard to the CVE system is concentrated at MITRE. This must be changed. For example by sharing/transfering ownership/responsibility with enisa.europa.eu and other organisations.
