It is very embarrassing, but in the patch to the xp\_publish.php file shipped with CopperExport 0.1 and 0.2, I had introduced a security vulnerability that would allow for SQL injection attacks against the gallery. I have released CopperExport 0.2.1. The plugin itself has not changed (except for some additional error reporting), but it is extremely [...]

XEmacs has now been ported to Carbon. Downloaded and compiled without a problem, I’m just starting to test it. I’ve used XEmacs for a long time on Solaris and Linux, it’s good to have it on MacOSX as well. Good stuff. I’m not too fond of the icon, though.

I have created a new category called “Linky” for quick links to interesting things on the web. I have implemented it using Matt’s “asides”, following the excellent instructions put together by Fernando_Graphicos, and modified the style to mark them with a nice icon from the Nuvola icon set by David Vignoni.

- (done) In the description of a new album, be able to enter [...]

I’m a freak for neat tools and tricks, and one of them is launchers on the Mac. A long time ago I used (and even bought) LaunchBar, then discovered Butler, and had been very happy with it. Then, recently, through 43 Folders, I rediscovered QuickSilver, which I tried some time ago, but was still too [...]

After having used CVS for source code management for a long time, I recently started using Subversion, and like it a lot, I think I’m switching to it for good. So of course, CopperExport is kept on Subversion, and only after creating the project at Sourceforge I realized that they still do not provide Subversion [...]
