[MLUG] Practical Attack on the MIFARE Classic.

I thought the cards used to ride the london tube for free were the 
unecrypted single use mifare light or some such cards (no encryption)? And 
that since then they have fixed that problem?

I'm not too sure about building access, but I'm specifically interested in 
cloning of the MIFARE Classic cards, is this currently feasible?  Are 
people doing it?
So far I can just find tech-news wishy-washy articles that don't hold any 
value for me.  There was some talk earlier about cloning the STM cards and 
I was just curious if this has been accomplished.  As far as I can see 
this is not possible, but does anyone else know for sure otherwise?
