Yesterday's post has been broken due to the handling of selectors in
geomyidae. I accidentally (or not) added a  dot to the end of my post
file so it contained '..'. This in turn resulted in geomyidae
rejecting the selector silently. This is done to prevent directory
traversal attacks. I have fixed my post file name and sent a patch
that fixes the behaviour upstream to _20h_.

UPDATE:______________________________________________________________
After a little discussion we settled on a small patch that
will return an error when a client asks for a selector containing
'..'. It's better to fail loudly here and being smart is something
left to the web.

On the bright side, this has been brought to my attention several
times by you, dear reader. Thanks for contacting me through the
various channels.

This has been a real motivation boost for me.

Thanks!
