Remove 'md5Hashed' variable from Javascript

2018-04-09 Thread Rafael Weingärtner
Hello fellow CloudStackers,

Today I was working on CLOUDSTACK-5235, which is a security issue, and I
noticed a variable ‘md5Hashed’ in the javascript that does not seem to be
useful at all. This variable was used to control if we hash or not the
password of users in the user side (browser). However, we no longer hash
the password on the user side. All of the password processing is executed
in the server side according to the priority of hashing mechanism defined
by the administrator.

I am addressing this cleanup with this PR
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2555.

If you have any objections regarding this variable and its relate code
removal, please do so. Otherwise, we will proceed to remove it.

The edit has been undone already.

There could be a better section on Key Features.
Perhaps a short paragraph outlining:
- what it is good for,
- what it competes with and
- why it needs to exist at all.

Is the other info accurate?

Is the user list up to date?

In essence, they have changed the start of the history section to give a 
history of the cloud.com domain name. I do not think that is either relevant or 
appropriate to the history of cloudstack itself

Has anybody here got experience in editing on Wikipedia and able to 
object/change this edit ?

I'm happy to take this task on, but have no experience in the process, 
policies, etc


Kind regards
Giles
