Security risks in Extension:DataTable

You stated in Extension:DataTable that the extension does not sanitize the SQL code (which is correct) and that therefore arbitrary SQL statements can be injected. Could you kindly provide an example of injecting a statement? RV1971 08:24, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

SQL code injection should be pretty strightforward. Usually you end the present statement as a NOP, adds one or several new statemens, and include an additional statement to do the normal work of the SQL statement. Search on the net for other examples. Usually there are a few key indikators that can be used to dismiss dangerous strings. Jeblad 09:46, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Issues with Extension:RandomnInclude

Hi, just wanted to bring your attention to: Issue 1 and Issue 2 that were recently added. No burning rush, just wanted to make sure it was on your radar. Thank you for this extension. --SomaticJourney 13:45, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

OtrsTicket Download

Hi, the download link for Extension:OtrsTicket seems to be broken. Is it still possible to get this extension somewhere? --Mglaser 15:34, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Yes this happens from time to time. I've had on my schedule a cleanup of the code and upload to the common repo. Not quite sure whats happen this time, I'll try to get it back online. Jeblad 15:59, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

It Seems to be happen again. It would be grateful if you can provide a new download link. --BSG2000 09:16, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Google Summer of Code

I'm looking for a mentor for the Google Summer of Code for a project described here. Please ping me back if you're interested! Cheers, Drakefjustin 09:20, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Not sure if I'm the best person to be a mentor, but I can give you some hints about possible solutions. Email me and we'll see if this can work somehow. Jeblad 09:27, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Upcoming MediaWiki & Wikimedia developers' events

Hi, Jeblad! Do you think you could come to one of the upcoming MediaWiki developer meetings? We'll be designing and discussing a lot of new and upcoming features in MediaWiki, like Lua, ResourceLoader, Gadgets, and related stuff, and it would be useful to have you there.

Thanks, Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator (talk) 21:43, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Not exactly in my neighborhood! ;) Jeblad (talk) 08:03, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, right now there aren't that many events and they aren't close enough to many developers. If you want to help organize an event in your area, just let me know and I can give you materials, stickers, training tutorials, tips, etc. Thanks!

Some years ago I tried to get people interested but it seems to be somewhat difficult. I guess its not enough interest in developing for the Mediawiki platform in Norway, or err, basically its just me I guess… Not even sure I know enough about the latest releases.Jeblad (talk) 12:37, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

My sympathies on feeling like the only one! I'm sure you're not, but sometimes it takes time and persistent outreach to bring others "out of the woodwork". If you decide you'd like to learn more and take another try, please feel free, but of course no pressure. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator (talk) 01:29, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Added a note at the Norwegian Wikipedia Signpost, perhaps someone find it interesting. We'll see. Jeblad (talk) 02:23, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Also, if you'd like to come to the Berlin event but travel money is an issue, keep your eye on wikitech-l; I will be announcing when we open up requests for travel subsidies. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Volunteer Development Coordinator (talk) 12:30, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
