Forget php.apache.org TLP. We don't want technology umbrellas, and working actively to get rid of those we have. So, your aim would be a piwi.apache.org TLP instead, which is fine ambition. 2. A PHP project at Apache is not a problem per se, IMHO. But, your main challenge will be (just like log4php) to attract enough momentum to get the community going. I doubt that there are many existing Apache committers that are in deep with PHP, so you won't have this 'automatic attention of 1000 developers' like a Java project would. Maybe that sounds discouraging, but it is my personal take on the subject. Many good sites are LAMP driven, and personally I would like to see more PHP stuff coming to Apache, but *I* can't write a single line of code, so no help from here... What does the rest of the Incubator think? Cheers Niclas P.S.
