I recommend coordinating such eventual rewrite with upstream: He commented similarly on the PHP code size being quite small when we hung out together New York in April, and has an elaborate reason for not rewriting quickly (which I did not understand but blame me for that!). > >Diaspora / Friendica (social networking): > > > > Libertree (Ruby, Alpha) > > I thought Diaspora was Ruby on Rails? Correct, Diaspora is written in Rails, which unfortunately is similarly worrisome as PHP: even if (arguably) the underlying Ruby language has saner coding style and community habits, Ruby on Rails tend to focus on rapidly mashing things together rather than caring about security. NB! I have no proof of this and no degree in computer science, just a strong gut feeling and many years of working as sysadmin - I'd be more than happy to be proved wrong! > >RoundCube / SquirrelMail (webmail): > > > > ??? > > The (very minimal) NULL webmail client is written in C: > http://nullwebmail.sourceforge.net/webmail/ Quite interesting!
