Information classification needs more than a James Bond top secret stamp
Information classification needs more than a James Bond top secret stamp
It doesn’t really matter where you live in the world, the chances are that your country has been hit by some high profile data loss scandal during the course of the last year or so.

Prototype: new cheat sheet and in place editor
The maintainer of scripteka, the Prototype extensions library, has produced a new cheat sheet for the recent 1.6.0.2 release.
