Hmmm. Yahoo's Talking about moving to PHP from a proprietary system.
And one of the selection criteria for prospective languages (perl,
php, java etc) was that it should run on FreeBSD.

They didn't pick java because
" you can’t really use Java w/o threads
• Threads support on FreeBSD is not great
"

Interesting, yes?
