We don't include external references in the announcements themselves;
however, I'll ensure a reference to your blog post is included with
each of the CVE entries in the Ubuntu Security Team's CVE tracker,
now that Mitre has assigned CVEs. The CVE entries are linked from
the USN, so it'll still be findable for anyone who researches the
specific issues.

Thanks!
