This plugin is dependent on WP/GeoTrack by Johannes Lietz, this is NOT a stand-alone plugin, it won’t work if WP/GeoTrack is not installed anyway, so it’s safe.
And don’t look for it in WP Plugins repo, you won’t find it there

Also, you have to forgive the function, constants, and variables names, we all struggle for a better and sensible one 
Happy coding!

This is REAL work! They do not only trace bugs, but also annoyances, which is a big factor in UI experience.
WordPress 2.8.4: Security Release
Posted August 12, 2009 by Matt. Filed under Releases, Security.Yesterday a vulnerability was discovered: a specially crafted URL could be requested that would allow an attacker to bypass a security check to verify a user requested a password reset. As a result, the first account without a key in the database (usually the admin account) would have its password reset and a new password would be emailed to the account owner. This doesn’t allow remote access, but it is very annoying.
We fixed this problem last night and have been testing the fixes and looking for other problems since then. Version 2.8.4 which fixes all known problems is now available for download and is highly recommended for all users of WordPress.

Thanks to ndesign-studio for this very nice theme. I guess you figured out what it’s trying to emulate, right – iPhone / Mac. But I don’t have a Mac, only the iPhone. What I like about this system is that it looks really firm, stable, though not too colorful or fancy skins, it is pretty solid in its own.
I retain the random quotes below the header, that’s what I had in Ice theme.

I just got the most weirdest comment made on WordPress today, that is:
(Email)
I’ve had a play with 2.6 it still isn’t an advance on the current live versions that we’re currently using(IM)
i’m shockled how much i hate the new version
What?!!! When did any given group of developers or software companies created a new version of their product that is worse than the previous one? Especially WordPress, having a great attention these days.
Simply compare the two versions “Create New Post” page
