It's wildly ambitious in my humble quasi-lay opinion, and I wish them all
the luck in the world. PHP5 looks so Java-like that I sometimes think of
it as JHP. OTOH if we can have all that stuff if we want it, and ~still~
write a Hello World in one line (so unlike Java), halleluyah. It's like
the best of Perl and Java brought together and optimized to the max for
web applications. Yum. (No offense to the Java-haters and Perl-haters
intended.)
