[clug-talk] his payment problem is 10+ years old.

Fully agree this payment problem is 10+ years old. No tech is required or desired. (I would not use PayPal.) All that is needed is an easy to find payment info block, snail mail address and payee name (just CLUG?), near the top of the http://clug.ca/wordpress/membershi/ page that we can

I do understand that it is half of the problem, but it is also important to know that most servers do not use the vulnerable package, they use an older one afaik. Cheers Sam On April 8, 2014 Tuesday 23:42:45 Anand Singh wrote: > Just remember that patching your local installation doesn't make y
