<div style="font: 10pt arial;"><b>Subject:</b> [theme-reviewers] Tracking
Code?</div>
<div><br></div></div><div><div></div><div>Perhaps I'm a bit gun-shy, given some of the recent tickets
we've seen; but I'll ask anyway.
<div><br></div>
<div>Can someone take a look at <a href="https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/924" target="_blank">Ticket #924</a>?
Particularly, take a look at functions.php and footer.php, with respect to
<b>$cleansimplewhite_tracking_code</b>.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I can't see the Theme actually defining this variable, but its presence
has me somewhat suspicious. It doesn't exist in either version 1.0 or 1.1 of
the Theme in SVN. It just showed up in version 1.2. (Note: review version is
1.2, but is the first Trac ticket generated for the Theme.)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Is this being used for something legitimate that I'm not seeing, or is
the developer perhaps intending to deliver some future payload of some
sort?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
