Okay. I hereby inform you all that I am polyglot. I know many
languages. But really, who here _isn't_? Is there anyone on this list
who has absolutely no skills outside of Python? I rather doubt it.

How about: Google is your friend? I'm sure that a Joomla security hole
mailing list can easily be found at the opposite end of a web search.

He has Google to help, and he can access other mailing lists. Anyone
who wants to admin a web site ought to be able to find appropriate
places to ask questions. There's a reasonable level of courtesy and
assistance offered, but eventually, it's time to just say "This is off
topic" and not try to assist.
