But that bug report is from back in the middle of August, and a patch was created by Ryan Boren already and noted in the Secunia advisory (http://secunia.com/advisories/21486). Why now, 5-6 weeks later, is it mysteriously dropped from trunk with no real explanation. As someone else said, he's replacing it with code that: 1. Doesn't do the exact same, export and backup are NOT the same. 2. Ties into another for-profit service he runs. -- Ryan Duff http://ryanduff.net AIM: ryancduff irc.freenode.net #wordpress #plogger _______________________________________________ wp-testers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
