It may not have been a bug. I remember he set up a system whereby he
copied the algorithm used by our computing service for generating
students' initial passwords from date of birth etc. He used plaintext
passwords to check that it gave the same result as the computing
service. I think this may have been the point at which it didn't get put
back. But it's some time ago...
