antileech
After the recent episodes of content theft that have been reported by myself and others Owen has written a new plugin called antileech which aims to make it easy to protect your sites against leechers.

WordPress 2.0.4 released (Security update)
WordPress v2.0.4 has been released with a number of security updates so it is well worth upgrading.
To simplfy the upgrade process I decided again to try generating a diff file between 2.0.3 and 2.0.4 and using that to patch my sites rather than uploading a full set of new files. The process for generating the diff file is actually simpler than the one I used last time!
Here is the process I took on my local machine to generate the diif file:
- Generated the patch file with
svn diffusing the following command (all on one line):
svn diff http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.0.3 http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.0.4 > ~/2.0.3-to-2.0.4.patch

WordPress 2.0.2 released – Security update
WordPress v2.0.2 has been released with a number of security updates so it is well worth upgrading.
To simplfy the upgrade process I decided to try generating a diff file between 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 and using that to patch my sites rather than uploading a full set of new files.
Here is the process I took on my local machine to generate the diif file:
- Exported both 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 from svn using the following commands:
To get 2.0.2 - svn --force export http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/branches/2.0
To get 2.0.1 - svn --force export http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.0.1
- Generated a patch file using diff:
diff -U3 -r 2.0.1 2.0 > 2.0.1.to.2.0.2.patch
I then uploaded the patch file to my server and placed it in my home directory and applied the patch as follows:
