PHP Consortium Tackles Third-Party Application Security

["Kenneth R. van Wyk" <Ken () krvw com>]

I know that PHP is often the whipping boy of programming languages, at least 
from the perspective of Software Security--and with good reason.  To address 
the situation, a PHP Security Consortium has been launched.  There's an 
eWEEK.com article on the topic available at: 
http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1758408,00.asp

Among other things, the group, "plans to promote secure programming practices 
among developers and set up a one-stop shop for documentation, tools and 
standards."  Sounds to me like a step in the right direction, at least.

Anyone here involved in that effort?  Any comments/opinions?

Cheers,

Ken van Wyk
