Hi Mark,
Could you share the vulnerability itself...?
I'll PM you.

Basically, I think what SMF should be going, if it HOPES to have a chance at surviving, is moving its SVN to git, and allowing anyone to commit patches for the lead devs to check and push into the core.
Completely agreed. Git is the only repository system where you can freely merge various patches across branches. That's *perfect* for supporting dozens of forks.

Since the SMF devs are obviously unable to do the amount of work they're expected to do, I'm sure the SMF team will eventually rely on this.[nb]
Yes. It's obvious the pace of development is slow. I reported a major XSS attack on SMF last week... still not fixed. I may write the patch myself (of course I will share it here, too, once written). I'm just burnt out with coding lately.

I'd like to make changes, but I don't have time to make massive ones. Using git would encourage me to get more active in SMF/forks development.
