See how we've evaluated the PHP market size($$$), what people think about PHP as an alternative to Java and .NET, and what should be done in order to have your large clients adopt open source solutions."

Remember on Slashdot...

OO is BAD, OO SUCKS, OO BLOWS

Scripting is COOL, Scripting is GOOD, Scripting is FAST

The fact that managing distributed XA transactions and integrating with multiple datasources is the requirement doesn't matter... on Slashdot you can ALWAYS do it better in Perl.

Fuck you! Python is stupid as shit. Die Python! Use Smarty with PHP and it rocks! None of that stupid Python white space indentation shit or pseudo OOP bullshit.

I have to agree about the OOP, though. I wrote a pretty large-scale ecommerce project in php, though, and it took me about 1/5 the time it would have taken in perl.
You mistyped "5x" as "1/5". HTH. (Either that, or you're hopelessly incompetent and need to write "a competent programmer can write" instead of "I wrote".)
