: As for whether it will be done, well, what does PHP give you over
: Perl? I know Perl well and PHP AFAICS is a tiny subset of Perl
: designed to be embedded in web pages. Given PL/Perl, do we really
: need PL/PHP?
I wouldn't call PHP a subset of Perl at all! I'd call them sibling
languages with different strengths. I think Perl does certain things better
than PHP but PHP has strengths that Perl probably can't compete with. But
for the most part, AFAIK, anything you can do in Perl, you can also do in
PHP.
