WordPress 2.6.1 has been released. Upgrade went smoothly and everything seems fine - if you do notice a problem with the site then let me know.

I got back from nine days in Chicago on Wednesday. While there there was an impressive thunderstorm. I’ll post more about my Chicago trip at some stage.

WordPress 2.6 has been released. I have upgraded this blog - a rather quick and easy process.

Also, I have moved server recently. Hopefully everything is up and working correctly. If not let me know. The move was fairly painless - just a little while spent working out where all the setting were kept.

The new version of WordPress adds additional protection for cookies. It is very much worth adding the config option mentioned, since it helps protect against problems where a database have already been compromised.

Hot on the heels of WordPress 2.5.0 is the security update - WP 2.5.1.

Rumours that I have as many draft posts as SKG are false - though more than ten will exist soon if I keep leaving them unpublished!

I saw this meme going around the blog world and decided to join in.

Geir mentions that GitHub is live and that ‘Git is conquering the world‘.

At this point I feel rather smug. I keep a repository of my own files on one of my machines. When I set up this repository, several years ago, I picked Subversion. However, recently the repository server has been offline and, so, I needed easy offline access to the repository. Fairly much randomly I decided to use Git, through the git-svn tool.
