Good morning, Whirlers.

Good morning.

If any of you are interested in the white paper advertised in today's
Techwr-l announcement email or anything else from Innodata-Isogen, be
aware that when you sign up they send your password back in clear text.

Of course most of us are savvy enough to use throwaway passwords for
such things, but it's still poor security practice.

I've emailed the I-I webmaster to outline my concerns.
