OWASP's VulnXML Database
Ingo Struck writes "The
Open Web Application Security Project released the VulnXML db for early access to the public. VulnXML is a description of static known vulnerabilities. It provides all necessary information to let an execution engine automatically craft and launch appropriate HTTP, SOAP or WebDAV requests and analyse the response whether the attack had success. Besides it provides some human readable classification of the
described vulnerability. A tool to execute VulnXML records is currently being developed and will help developers to check their web applications against a suite of well-known vulnerabilities described in a portable format."

1 It will soon be illegal because of SCO and DMCA
2 GPL is anti-capitalist (use bsd instead)
3 Its hard to use (Gnome for example hide all the features that make it useable in its secret gconf database)
4 Its unstable (2.2 is the exception, but unless you apply about 1000 patches and backports its too old to be useful)
5 The software sucks (Openoffice, *puke* at the bloat)
6 The UI is inconsistent (read : gnome file dialog)
7 You have to type commands (None in windows since 95)
8 It doesn't run Windows programs (wine dosen't count)
9 You cannot buy a computer with Linux (Lindows at walmart dosen't count)
10 Linux companies are going out of bussiness (Mandrake for example)
11 RMS is a communist arsehole (note the arse)
12 High total cost of ownership
13 Too many distros
14 Un-american (American software sucks anyway)
15 Its not from microsoft (Therefore it does not have a monopoly in order to succeed)
16 Poor security track record (look at the kernel change logs)
17 Anyone and their 14 year old brother can add (buggy) code (and yes, it DOES sneak through CVS)
18 Even BeOS was better (try it and you will see te light)
19 Eugenia doesn't like it (she dosen't like anything actually)
20 It SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! (-1, flamebait dosen't change this)

Check out BXML for a binary encoding of XML to efficiently carry scientific/array-type data. Feedback appreciated.
What is even more ironic is that Larry fancies himself some sort of "linguist" or "English" major. He went to college and read a couple books on Shakespeare so now he thinks he is some kind of language expert. Well it doesn't work that way.
Take a look at Perl. Does it look like it was designed by anyone who knew anything about the English language? No, it doesn't. It honest-to-God looks like it was designed by someone who was an Egyptian hieroglyphics major who spent all his free time watching Star Trek -- in other words, someone completely disconnected with reality.
So you can see why Perl sucks. Not to worry; there are other better languages to use. Try Python or Ruby, or gosh darn it -- Korn Shell. Any of these is better than Perl which should be relegated to set decoration for Raiders of the Lost Ark.
