[OSGeo-Board] Rollyo Security Issue

[Daniel Brookshier]

Sun is indeed an older version. But the open errors reported are just  
about identical (some I reported once I found that OSGeo was not the  
only one that had a bad behavior). Note also that Sun has a contract  
with O'Reilly so what you might think is a better CollabNet is really  
just a loosely coupled mix of O'Reilly and CollabNet. A few nice  
things but poorly interfaced, if at all.  For our credit, a lot of  
things are being rewritten in general to enhance usabiliity. I am  
trying to schedule product management ot give the board an anyone  
else interested a look at the coming versions.

There is also a rewrite of our messaging that combines email and a  
threaded forums service. If you are interested in taking a look, let  
me know. They are looking for a community to beta test.
