The distribution comes/came with an empty index.html in every directory that should not be listable by outsiders (by requesting the directory name).
With the latest release these are gone?
no index.html in uploads directory

Re: no index.html in uploads directory
The index.html is only a dummy so this folder can be compressed and decompressed without problems on all operating systems.
It was my suggestion cause I missed the uploads directory in version 0.11
. I know it and you know it but a newbie could have a problem if this directory does not exists.
But perhaps it should be replaced by an other non internet readable file.

Sorry maybe I was not clear: they are not there.
You can list the contents of those directories from your browser. That could be considered a (very minor) security issue.
