I'm running late tonight (12:50ish)
So a quick overview of the day. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
Got in. ISS wrote back to complain that they believed the design of the GUI to allow people in without requireing a password was flawed,.. There are many schools of thought on this, however, the political thing to do is to seal it up and stop people even having the chance to play with the GUI. To this end, the password update has been superceeded with piranha-0.4.14-1 which has removed the password change facility entirely. If you're intrested at all, then please have a look at the update and send in feedback. Without feedback I can't evaluate mistakes or overlooked features. (Feedback to: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla please)
Had a number of people ask if they could quote from yesterdays diary, well for all those that care, from my viewpoint, the diary is 'public domain' information, if you want to quote from it, go right ahead,.. they're my thoughts on my day to day experiances.
Anyway, spent 3/4 of the day in the labs going through install upgrade, test repeatidly with the QA people. I hope that 0.4.14-1 burries the security issue as a non event. The next set of updates should simply be feature/normal bug updates (most likely spelling corrections)
Umm well other than that the vast majority of the remainder of the day was simply batting away the queries and the jouralists.
I did find time when people went home to setup the webcam on the desktop machine. If you want to point and laugh etc you'll find it here I have to fix the time,.. it's showing 3 hours into the future which is odd.
I have the cable guy coming out at 13:00 tomorrow so hopefully I'll have something to watch at home tomorrow night.
I'm shooting off home now.. 12:59am. I'm just plain tired.
