13 vulnerabilties for product "Perl" since 1999 and the last one dates back from 2005!

Compare this to PHP, which has 185 vulnerabiities since 2000, with the last one in April 2007.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
