The hacker seems nice:

“Anyways, that's all for now. I hope this series of issues has given you some good ideas for how to prevent this level of compromise in the future. Security doesn't work retroactively, but I believe in you and I think you'll come back from this even stronger than before.

Or at least, I hope so -- My own information is in this user table.”

I enjoyed the shout out for EFnet.

I wonder if he searched for his own credentials on the production server, and if so, is there a log of it?

Just grabbing it to elsewhere and searching there would be trivial, so I'd expect not.

Hopefully, but it could be just posturing.

That gives a 404 now. I'm not enormously happy with GitHub's willingness to completely hide bug reports like this...

I agree. IIRC, the ability to delete Issues is new. There used to be a "Beta" label beside the delete button and prior to that I don't think it was possible (or at least not as easily?).

Looks like it wasn't cached by Google either.
