I just have to wonder: Is it possible to have the benefits of a personal publishing platform without the ever lengthening record of security problems?

In other words, can't the folks behind WordPress create a simplified version of a personal publishing platform - WordPressLite - that is rock solid?

Since it's a GPL licensed product has anyone attempted to take the code, gut it and reduce it to a product that offers 100% of what is needed to publish with only 95% of the bells or whistles that makes for added vulnerability?

Really, where is a simple, designed for security version of WordPress?

Why isn't there a WordPress community that has taken that mission upon itself? You mean there's no call for it?
