BitFlux Weblog:
PHP in the Press (and Comments)
Dec 30, 2004 @ 13:02:45

Over on the BitFlux Blog about some of the coverage that PHP has been getting in the press:

I missed a lot of the bad press about PHP and Santy in the last days, since I'm here in the middle of the Alps. But one concerned PHP user, David Chui, sent this mail to the Planet PHP address and I'd like to publish some of his mail here. This is his opinion alone and I don't necesseraly totally agree with him ...

I just wanted to pass along my concern about the beating that PHP is taking all over the press. Actually not just a beating, it's really being shit on, frankly. I've been looking around at all my usual large PHP sites, and not one word about the bad press, not even on phpBB. I'm amazed. I can only conclude that PHP people might be saying something like, "we put the patches out months ago and if people don't install them, then too bad, and we'll just wait 'til this blows over".

The user's stand (David Chui) continues on, accusing the PHP community of not taking the action that it needed/needs to to make things like the Sanity worm easier to combat in the future. "Instead, PHP.net and other places look as though they just have their heads in the sand."
