[HLUG] archiving software

[Alex Mace]

Ahem, to my mind something being written in Python does not make it  
more secure than something PHP, it's down to the programmer to  
remember to properly filter input, encode output rather than the  
language itself. PHP is an easy language to pick up which means that  
you get a lot of programmers who don't know what they are doing. The  
language itself is not a measure of security.

I am a PHP programmer though, so I would say that...
