    Question: #Centos 5.6 server, Yum reports #Apache 2.2.8 is latest – but ASF recommends security update to 2.2.20. Do Centos track security? # Re: Centos, woot – many thanks, all! # @chris_bloke "change control in a production environment" # @chris_bloke put otherwise: "One does not simply… _Upgrade_ into Mordor^H^H^H^H^H^H 5.7" # @GradRabac If it means…

    I find it hard to believe I am arguing with Oxford #BCS about the word "sex" in the title of "Sex, Lies & Instant Menssenger". # @lowk3y Apparently the Oxford #BCS chapter's webmaster is "worried" about putting the word 'sex' on their website. # @JimAnning "Crumpet, Fibs and Bloody Internet Boffins, Shouldn't Be Allowed Sort…

    @1Password Have updated to Lion, installed 1P from AppStore, and now AutoFill not working on Chrome.

    Amusing that http://t.co/TttPcH5 has been purged but not http://t.co/h0Gdpym ; someone must have made a special effort. # @Simon_M_White One can have fun with that – #Alfresco PR might think again if tweets start coming from @GhostOsama &c. # What an actual Apple Television might be like: http://t.co/CiXBYVR # RT @woodlark: "security still a major…
