Drupal Association blog: Drupal Association secures Alpha-Omega grant to future-proof Open-Source Security for the AI Era.
We are proud to share that the Drupal Association has been awarded a grant from the Alpha-Omega Project, a project of The Linux Foundation, which seeks to help open source projects identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities.
As AI-generated commits and AI-driven security threats become the norm, open-source ecosystems must evolve rapidly. This funding directly strengthens the already mature Drupal Security Team, ensuring our core ecosystem is hardened against the modern, AI-age vulnerabilities.
The funding provided by Alpha-Omega will enable the Drupal Security Team to build the program we need to stay ahead in this fast moving environment. Drupal's already excellent security position will be even better going forward.
~ Tim Doyle, CEO at Drupal Association.
Security has been a defining pillar of the Drupal ecosystem. This collaboration with the Alpha-Omega Project underscores our ongoing commitment to open-source resilience, solidifying Drupal's position as the gold standard for secure enterprise content management.
Drupal is, and will continue to be, one of the most secure CMS platforms in the world.

Planet PHP
ezSystems are classy folks
Last week I helped the folks at ezSystems debug some APC problems they were having. The problems ended up being a 64bit architecture problem (they have uber-fast Opterons) and the bug is now fixed in 2.0.3.
Today I received Python & XML from them (off my Amazon wishlist). Thanks guys!
On a side note, my wishlist seems borked. The list I get when I search on my email address or name is not the same one I can edit when I log into the site.

PHP april fools...
1st of April 2004 get's to it's end and I guess it's time, to summarize the recent April fools a bit. Not that I think anyone in the world believes in them, but some were quite funny:
1. Changes to case sensitivity in PHP.
Alan Knowles announced that PHP will change to the studlyCase API and therefor will get everything broken by changing established functions.
2. IBM takes over Zend.
Myself hacked a little article about IBM taking over Zend to make PHP a compete of Java.
3. The first PHP virus has been seen.
Wasn't there one last year, too?
4. PHP has been overtaken by Micro$oft.
Mhhh... a little bit unreliable, if they had been taken over by IBM this morning... Maybe one should first look, what others wrote...
5. And finally, PHP4 and 5 showed their real faces...
Take a look at a phpinfo() output!
I guess I missed some, so feel free to comment on this entry, if you found another!

PHP Virus Attacking Web Hosts
Symantec have a report of the virus here. I've yet to see any of the PHP news sites picking up on it but, using a virtual host account, managed to deliberately expose some PHP scripts to it. From examining the infected scripts, what's disturbing is once infected, every tim...
