an interesting thing happened on the django list some time back. Some php guy wanted to migrate to django and asked 'where is the page for security vulnerabilities?' and was told that there was no such page as there are no security vulnerabilities. So the guy promptly refused to look further into django as he felt that an application without regular updates to fix security holes is unreliable. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
