So I'm back from vacation. We had a great time out in Victoria staying with our good friends Lauren & Daryl Elving-Klassen. On the coast the trees have buds, and the tulips are just poking through the ground. We arrive back in Calgary to 10cm of fresh snow and highs of -15C. Who lives in this place??? A few days ago a minor vulnerability crept up in Drupal core. And another one in the captcha module which I use on sites that allow anonymous comments. I quickly patched all of sites that we work on (It would be pretty tricky to exploit these flaws, but we make it a policy to stay on top of these things). Unfortunately the patch for captcha made the module unusable in some of the most common configurations (!?!?!?). So I dug into the code and fixed the flaw. This is the great thing about Open Source Software. Someone found a vulnerability in the code and made a fix for it, giving it back to the community at large. I found a bug in the code and made a fix for it, giving it back to the community at large. No one person (or any closed group) could have created a CMS/framework/platform as solid/scalable/flexible/etc. as what Drupal has become. Because we share our work, we all benefit.
