Detronizator now on WordPress 2.1.3

Post of April the 3rd, 2007 (today) taken by the WordPress.org official blog: WordPress 2.1.3 and 2.0.10 By Matt. Filed under Security, Releases. We have a security update release now available for both the 2.1 and 2.0 branches of WordPress now available for immediate download. This update is highly recommend for all users of both branches. These releases include fixes for several publicly known minor XSS issues, one major XML-RPC issue, and a proactive full sweep of the WordPress codebase to protect against future problems. Many thanks to Sumit Siddharth and Alex Concha for their help with reporting issues in this release. As an update to the systems issue we had last month, we have taken dozens of additional precautions with the servers and systems that run WordPress.org and they appear to be working well, despite hundreds of hack attempts after we publicly disclosed there had been a problem. We are also now aggressively monitoring all downloads for any changes or modifications, and we are confident the same type of problem won’t happen again. ...

I don’t know how many email I have, but the oldest is from the 2002 (I have cutted older because they became useless).

Starting from that tips, I have expanded it to vacuum every table in the SQLite3 database used from Mail.app to index our emails. Continue to see the mini-howto. ...

XCode meets Mono

And… seems to be a nice meeting. ;) After a lot of development, the comunity surrounding the project realeases last stable version 1.2.3.1 of Mono. What about [en:Mac_OS_X|Mac OS X]? Here is a dedicated page on the official wiki of Mono. And, in particular, I’m happy to highlight a tutorial/howto about XCode and Mono integration: CSharpPlugin. I know that [en:Mono_(software)|Mono] is the open-source implementation of [en:.NET_Framework|.Net] (started by [en:Novell]), and that I hate [en:Microsoft|M$], but… I can’t hate a framework.

Dynamic Google Page Rank for Detronizator.org

Today is a great day ( :P ): I have added Google Page Rank calculation on the sidebar (→) of my weblog. It’s possible thanks to the [en:PHP] class “Google Page Rank Checker” by Emre Odabas, hosted on PHPClasses (the most important source-of-code-and-snippets for PHP Developers). The class calculates “only” the integer value (between 1 and 10): the graphic representation is by me. Actual Page Rank? 5!!! O_o
