Hi,

I have renamed ~/www/webcast/comments.php3 so that people are unable to
upload multimedia comments to the site. I still have to comment out the
link to the comments page "add your own longer comments (including web
links and multimedia uploads)", dirty I know, but I'm very short on
time. I'll try and find it tommorrow.

I've also asked that the 'aotearoa' user on cat be given membership to
the 'kore' group. I think that they will make a new user for me instead.
Once I'm part of this group I can prune out some of the truly irrelevent
files on the server [not spam, but video test files etc]. We're
currently at around 290mb in uploads, so any space I can save will make
cat happy.

I've also asked for a new group + user be created so people can get
access to the 'aimcprint' folder for uploading static text etc. I can
restrict write access to the relevent folders without fear of trashing
anything else. No response on that yet.

Upcoming jobs:

Create <head> and <script> regexps on publish.php3 that will catch 
malicious [and just plain crap] code before it is uploaded. *I would
really appreciate some help with this*

Sanitise aimcprint.php3:
- Move pdf downloads to this folder
- split include files into: windy current, windy archive and chch
  so people can work on their relevent bits.

Get pushtoeye.pl going. I suspect that this may actually be working
fine, but that our account wasn't set up properly.
