Wes over at MasterlessSamurai.com has written some extra ideas on securing your Prosper202 installation, we especially liked the idea of having your prosper202 domain removed from the google index by using the google-webmaster tools. You can find his entire post here:

10 Best Practices to Securing Your Prosper202 Installation

Wes also talks about using an SSL on your Prosper202 Installation. Full SSL support will be implemented in the next release 1.2.0.

We are getting ready to release the next version of Prosper202 and I wanted anyone who was expecting a certain feature to be released in 1.2 to remind me now of what it is you wanted. There have been to many feature requests to even keep track of, but I want to do our absolute best in re-capturing those ideas and giving a full-pledged attempt to implement them in the next release.

Specifically, if you've talked to me personally and I've said that i'd be able to get a certain feature done in the next release please remind me now. I can't promise I'll get everything done but I'm going to try my best.

I want to get as many updates as possible done for this release because after it is complete our focus will be shifted to finishing Tracking202 Pro. We are expected to release the software during Affiliate Summit West 2009. The reason for saying this is that there will not be any more updates on Prosper202 untill Tracking202 Pro is finished. After Tracking202 Pro is in a stable production environment we will again be improving Prosper202. So because of this, please send in all reasonable requests for 1.2 now.

If you are a developer and have created some modifications to Prosper202 and would like to share them with the rest of the community please submit them here. We will of course mention and give credit to whomever submitted the modifications. All modifications will be of course made open-source along with the rest of our code.

And if you haven't done already, please nominate us for the Crunchies 2008 startup awards, for Best Bootstrapped Startup Award. Thanks for your continuing support, and lets the make Prosper202 1.2 the best we possible can--together.

Description of maintenance:
The purpose of the emergency maintenance is to upgrade the code on one of our distribution layer switches. The issue is not yet customer affecting, but we need to take proactive steps to ensure it does not impact customers in the future.
