WordPress Upgrade

I just finished upgrading the WordPress distributions on several sites that I run, including my own personal site - Jonathan Coffman - to fix the urgent security hole in the XML-RPC file in WordPress 2.3.2.

This has been resolved and downtime was kept to a maximum of 5 minutes per site. Sorry for the delay.

Recent Maintenance

Over the last week we've had a couple short maintenance windows where I'd had to restart some services after deleting and moving files. This doesn't happen very often but I had some client files still on the server that weren't needed any longer.

In addition, there was a recent change in the server backup system so for the time being, automated backups are not happening nightly as usual. If you run a blog on one of my systems please install a backup plugin and have it run until a new solution is rolled out.

In the meantime, take a look at my personal site, I recently redesigned it and now have a lot more content to peruse: Jonathan Coffman - New Media Specialist

I'll update again once we're through this transitionary period and things are more stable.
