As <i>Cal Evans</i> and others in the PHP community have pointed out, there's a <a href="http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2008/01/04/Predictions-PHP">post on Tim Bray's blog</a> (of Sun Microsystems) with his prediction for PHP for the upcoming year:
</p>
<blockquote>
The short version: PHP will remain popular but its growth will slow, as people get nervous about its maintainability and security stories.
</blockquote>
<p>
He does mention the two different stances of this statement - the good side (with low entry level, good applications and speed) and the stance he seems to believe in more - that there are just things about PHP and how its handled that could cause major issues down the line.
</p>
<p>
Be sure to check out <a href="http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2008/01/04/Predictions-PHP">the comments</a> for community views on both sides of the story too.
