Goes to show you why the DRY principle (I might be stretching that analogy here, but bear with me) is important here - if you have old stuff lying around in production that was cloned a long time ago, you might forget about it and open yourself up to unfortunate incidents like this.
PHP Fog is doing great work to make the PHP ecosystem easier to work with, and I hope they didn't suffer too much from this mistake.

- smokestack 16y agoI don't think DRY applies here unless you really stretch it. The "fix it if you see it, don't put it off" principle fits a lot better.
