i was actually looking into the job posted for this function... guess the previous guy walked out with the site heheheh
By now, someone from the IEBC should have fired someone and tendered afresh for the hosting - probably using some Russian folks! :-)

stop blaming tools and technology for inefficiencies. Poor design is just that. If you cant secure your MySQL you think those guys will handle oracle* (or whatever else) ? if they cant sort out joomla you can't really expect that same person to whip up a nice UI +DB on rails or whatever.
I am with Wash on this one. a mere DB connection issue is an issue especially for a site like the IEBC. if this were election time i can see/imagine a politician claiming sabotage, that could lead to nasty incidents. it would put a whole process in jeopardy.
We need to be clear. This is our money used to fund a very important public function. It goes beyond the technology and we have to be very vigilant.

Martin,
How about if they decided to take down the DB? I mean those who were dared to test the site. That still leads to insecurity. The site is comprised of all the content+DB.On Mon, Jul 30, 2012 at 11:40 AM, Martin Gicheru <martin@techweez.com> wrote:
