@bvibber from mediawiki posted that it was *that* bad, i'll take brooke's word for it
@bvibber hate. hate. let me tell you how much i hate doing sysadmin now. there are 387.44 miles of tubing in my stomach and they're all filling with hydrochloric acid at the thought of sysadmin. hate. hate.
@davidgerard it's not only wordpress but PHP as a whole. Every PHP based application is kinda screwed right now until patches are shipped.
