		<description><![CDATA[This is old news. The only reason that I am posting it is because it has to do with the contractor who is handling the improperly programmed People First Employment Portal. Offshore outsourcing cited in Florida data leak Employees who worked for the state during the 18-month period between Jan. 1, 2003, and June 30, 2004, may be affected, according to an e-mail message sent to all state employees on March 16. The state&#8217;s Department of Management Services (DMS), which oversees the People First system, estimates that 108,000 current and former state employees may be affected by the data breach, although that estimate could change as the department&#8217;s investigation into the matter continues. The e-mail was sent after a subcontractor of outsourcing service provider Convergys Corp. improperly allowed subcontractors in India to index state personnel files, said DMS spokeswoman Tiffany Koenigkramer. The offshoring was done as part of Convergys&#8217;s nine-year, $350 million contract to manage the state&#8217;s personnel work. This looks not to be Convergys Corp&#8217;s fault. The simple to remedy problem with the People First Portal; however, is their fault. I emailed them to no avail.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I followed the the advice of a user of digg, Sillywampa, on Digg&#8217;s entry about my earlier post on Florida&#8217;s People First Job Portal and emailled PeopleFirst@dms.myflorida.com about this issue. Here is what I wrote: I am writing to ask that you please allow users of the Firefox web browser to access the People First employment website. There is a script that runs and checks the user agent of the browser accessing the site. The script checks for Internet Explorer >5 but &#60;7, and >Netscape Navigator 6.2. Netscape Navigator 6.2 and Mozilla Firefox use the same page layout engine. This means that if the site works in one, it will also work perfectly in the other. The work to make the page compatible has already been done, and would simply require a change to the script that checks the browser&#8217;s user agent. The problem is especially important because the current state of the site locks out almost 100% of Mac users. The version of Internet Explorer for the Mac has been discontinued by Microsoft. Most Mac users use either Safari, or Firefox. This site will also be hard to access once Microsoft has released the final version of Internet Explorer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Update: I wrote a post about an email I sent to the State of Florida and the response I received. This was suggested by Sillywampa on Digg. Thanks Sillywampa for the email address. The State of Florida&#8217;s People First job portal is still running an outdated script that locks out users of alternative browsers from applying to state jobs. The only supported browsers are Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. This is very disconcerting for the Mac user, as none of the popular Mac browsers can be used. When attempting to view the site from Firefox or Safari you are taken to this error page: I first noticed this more than 6 months ago. Trying to be a good citizen, I called the number on the bottom of the page and reported the problem. It seems that the complaint was ignored or not forwarded to the right people. In this day and age it is unacceptable to block the second-most popular browser on the web. If the site loads properly in Netscape Navigator 6.2, then it will almost certainly load perfectly in Firefox. These browsers both use the Gecko / NGLayout rendering engine. Update: If you live in the State of [...]]]></description>
