"However, the Drupal account page doesn't require users to enter
the current account password in order to change the password to a new
value. This flaw, combined with a well crafted XSS attack, could be
used to change a user's password to an arbitrary value. "

I would like to announce the launch of DrupalConVideo.com . Please read before you think this is another video site, or a site trying to rip off the DrupalCon name.

This is our goal as we have it posted on our site:

Our goal is to bring Drupal to Japan and at the same time help spread it around the world. We realize the incredible power within Drupal, but as Japan has been left out we felt we would do our bit to get Japan up to speed! We are here to do just that, and also help others that are in the same situation in their home countries. We are not just about DrupalCon Videos, but all things Drupal. DrupalConVideo will be a place where media and tutorials can be viewed with ease. We are not here to take anything away from the developers of the videos, tutorials and articles. All the videos, tutorials and articles will credit the authors and will provide links and information about them. Without them , there would be no Drupal and this site would not exist.

Hi everyone,

We just released new versions of our Drupal appliances:

The latest versions add SSL support, phpMyAdmin and include a dozen popular extensions out of the box (e.g., WYSIWYG editor), along with many other bugfixes and improvements.

On April 18th, the first DrupalCamp Centroamerica is taking place in Managua, Nicaragua. This all-day event aims to actively form a community of professional drupalers from all Central American countries.

My name is Alice-Marie Archer, and I am a working on a collaborative thesis towards a masters in 'Strategic Leadership towards Sustainability' at the Blekinge Institute of Technology in Sweden. My peers (Rong Fei, Rebecca Petzel), and I are exploring how collaborative innovation networks can contribute to transformational change towards a sustainable society.

This research builds on an initial inquiry undertaken by NESTA (UK), Beyond Zero (UK) and innovation design student Ed Murfitt into the collaborative potential of the web for social innovations. We are working with this group, currently known as the collaboration ninjas, to build a living, on-going web based resource (ad-interim site: http://collaborationninja.wordpress.com/) to provide strategic and practical guidance for people interested in utilizing this potential for environmental and social innovations.

So this is a notification of the collaboration ninja project and a request for assistance in maximising the potential of the resource by making is user friendly and open: (http://collaborationninja.wordpress.com/improve-this-website/).
