Currently, this is human-generated. We could write (and have, in the 
past, written) code that does this, but the issue is that GUMs  and 
Install-Fests are not guaranteed to go off the first Saturday of every 
month and the second Saturday of every other month. I wouldn't want 
people showing up for an install-fest that the web page predicted but 
for which there was no actual event planned.

On the other hand, requiring humans to update the page tends to lead to 
unupdated pages. Perhaps updating the pages should be a function of the 
GUM and Install-Fest committees?

I'd be open to suggestions on how to handle this issue.

I've just fixed this, but this is definitely not a good thing.  Time to 
examine some logs.

Indeed. We had some news items and meeting info stuff that was... 
odd... before, as well. I mentioned it in the IRC channel, but 
should've posted to the list.

What was I saying about our security skillz as of two years ago not 
quite being up-to-par?

It would be nice to share the details of these events with atleast
the people on admin.  I'm still in the dark as to what happened
and why.

It appears as though someone gained unauthorized access to the wplug 
administration code and made a few (apparently harmless) changes to 
various sections.

Short-term, I suggest changing the administration password. Long-term, 
I am convinced that we need to do a full rewrite of the existing code. 
I'm going to start tackling this with PHP/MySQL unless someone can come 
up with a convincing alternative (I do know Java now, so that might be 
an option).

Just access to the admin pages, or did someone go in and make changes
to code in the filesystem?

I can't verify that the raw code wasn't changed. Do we have tripwire or 
the like installed?

I'll go over the entire site tonight, and possibly convert what I can 
to static pages, until I have something that I feel comfortable putting 
up again.

I like the new web page! :)

the install-fest date was incorrect.  I corrected it but did not
check in the changes (don't know if this is under version control).

Whoops, my mistake. Everything is under version control (namely CVS) at 
this point, so feel free to check your changes in.

Which reminds me: it seems like CVS is keeping the old (deleted) 
directories around in the repository, so that a fresh checkout will 
have them in the tree, but a cvs update -P will remove them. Is this 
standard behavior, or did I miss something?

That's cvs for you.. I always use "cvs update -dP ."

-d create dirs
-P prune empty dirs

cvs blows.. i'm learning bk now ;)
