Earlier today I completed a major update of the website for Open Source Database Magazine. Since I am primarily a database administrator and definitely not a web site programmer, I hired someone to do the work for me. Overall I think they did a pretty good job. While I am sure that the site will continue to evolve for some time, it will be quite some time before I do anything else to the site of this magnitude.
For those who signed up on the previous version of the site, I was able to bring your accounts over to the new site. Those people should have received an email with your login (email address) and a random password. While I had to briefly reset the password to a random one, it was reset shortly afterward to your old password. I am sorry for the inconvenience but it was necessary and will lead to a better site down the road. Your information was never published or compromised in any manner. I purposely do not store any sensitive information on the website. I do not store user’s credit card info or even the first and last name of the users.
If you have any issues you can send an email support@osdbzine.net.
thanks,
