Two bloggers have commented on the recent nomination of
Stefan Esser to eWeek's "Top 100 Most Influential People in IT" -
Ben Ramsey and
Stas (on the PHP 10.0 Blog).
Ben congratulates Stefan for the nomination, for making the list when others in the PHP community didn't.
Stas, on the other hand,
disagrees a bit with some of the comments made by the reporter that wrote up
Stefan's piece:
I do not see how reporting a bunch of vulnerabilities (most of them fixed by the time of publication - for which thanks to Stefan Esser as the responsible reporter) is "thoroughly exposing the insecure nature of PHP". Bugs and bug reports - including ones that may affect security in one way or another - are nothing but commonplace in both open-source and non-open-source software worlds.
You can check out the
full list for yourself on the eWeek site.
