as for security issues -- both bugzilla and mantis have had vulnerabilities. bugzilla is not an automatic win simply because it's not php. all things that don't use php are a win.
as stated before, this elitism belongs on an linux-vs-freebsd list. by logical extension of your assertion, dovecot should be written in java. please, let's not go there.
umm, what the hell? It's not elitism. It has nothing to do with being elite or better. It has to do with picking languages based on their security history and development style. Php has a bad security history and a kinda scary development style. And I have no idea why you'd think I'd suggest anything EVER be written in java.
I'll gladly back the hell away from this conversation as you appear to have gone 'round the twist.
