WordPress 2.6 is the current stable version of the popular blogging software, although WordPress 2.6.1 beta 1 is available for download and testing.
Like with all tech development, plans must be made ahead of time for changes, whether it’s for a new operating system, new kernel in Linux/Unix, or changes to online software, such as WordPress or even a Webmail interface. With development, though, comes testing, trials, and of course, changes. Yes, I said that ominous word that many simply hate: change.

After three days of email exchanges, Oliver sent me an alpha version of cForms 5.4. Alpha versions of development — pre-beta releases. Betas are basically “stable” products that are being considered for release. I’ve been alpha- and beta-testing for almost 20 years, so I backed up my database, installed and activated cForms 5.4 alpha, and went to work.

I’ve been running WP-DBManager 2.11 for a few months now, and for the most part, it sat in the background, doing, I suppose, what it was supposed to do on its own. Yes, like anyone who has been down the proverbial road of having to do backups, reinstalls, and disaster recovery, I know enough to check up on things, especially automated processes, such as WP-DBmanager, to be sure everything is working as it should. Each time I checked, it looked as though all systems were a GO!, as NASA would say.

In fact, the developers went so far as to explain that although not all downloads of [version] 2.1.1 were affected, we’re declaring the entire version dangerous.

When I began fiddling with the SanDisk Cruzer, I found it has this “desktop” software, so you can encrypt the contents of the drive. That’s a nice idea, but since I have no idea what’s behind that encryption, and didn’t take time to hack it, I decided to simply wipe the drive and use it how I use all keyfobs: using my own encryption source. I didn’t wipe everything off the drive, though, until I played with the stuff that came as bonus features.
