Re: Are we hearing the whole story?

i think the fact that she let people know they are now using PHP was the killer. which isn't highly sensative at all, anyone in a position to abuse that info could use many other avenues to discover they switched to PHP.

Re: Are we hearing the whole story?

First, who really cares. I have no opinion w/o both sides of the story.

2nd, she did discuss 'proprietary information'. Despite the fact that you could get this info any number of ways.... who knows.

Regardless, my guess is there is more to the story. Companies will many times use an issue like this, which isn't really an "issue", to can someone they would have a harder time canning for other reasons.

There is definately more to the story. She may not know it, but I'll bet her boss does.

It's not sensitive at all, especially considering all of their urls (formerly jsp's?) now end in php

You mean like looking at the extension at the end any Friendster page?
