Filed Under: General

We're working on resolving it.

This could take awhile. We're waiting on a customer to change DNS for his domain, so the attack will cease.

Hotfix Released for Plone Hotfix 20071106

Filed Under: Plone

If you're still using Plone 2.5.4 or 3.0.2 then you needed Plone Hotfix 20071106 back in November. But now there is a hotfix out for this hotfix, Plone Hotfix 20071106-2, to fix a vulnerability in the original hotfix. If you're not confused, and you're running Plone 2.5.4 or earlier, or Plone 3.0.2 or earlier, then please file a support ticket so we can install the new hotfix-hotfix for you. ;)

Mailboxer mtahosts Variable IP Change

Filed Under: General

If you run a Mailboxer mailing list please update the mtahosts variable to the new IP address: 72.249.122.111. It's critical you update this right away so your list continues to work. I apologize for the delay in this notification.

Turn HSRI into a Customer-Owned Coop?

Filed Under: General

The wild idea has been floated of turning High Speed Rails into a customer-owned cooperative. Each customer who chooses to become an owner of the coop would be on equal standing with all other owners, including the current ownership, and the cooperative would be run democratically. Members would likely be able to vote an owner discount and/or rebate. I think it's worth considering. If enough people participate, the cost may not be very high. If you're interested, let me know what you think.

In order to gauge the interest level, please participate in this very short and simple poll:

HSRI: A Customer-Owned Coop?
What Price Would You Pay for a Share of High Speed Rails Coop?
