Because it's so full of holes that you need to "upgrade" it every other
week?
Unfortunately web apps can never be secured . There would be some
vulnerability popping up . I think this is not the case of wordpress
alone .
<assumption>
WP has a huge customer base hence will have lot of bugs .. may be the
user vs contributor ratio plays a major role for
testing,reporting,designing and developing the WP .
</assumption>
Which is what annoys me about web apps written in php - whether php
encourages bad code or what I don't know, but almost all popular open source
php software is full of spaghetti code.
PHP does that :(
Well it was created to be a "Personal Home Page" and the first
versions were so simple to use that it gained huge popularity .
But its always up to developers to write clean code .
I say this as somebody who wrote a
plugin for wordpress and integrated another php app (elgg.net) into another
system. I can't even say how bad my experience of elgg integration was. Pure
horror would cover it.
I would like to know the issues you faced with it . Did you file a bug report ?
Anyways maybe a different thread in this mailing list would be fine .
