I did, but that was some time ago, I saw a talk about it when YAPC was
at McGill 2+(?) years ago. I was definitely impressed with it, and we
had considered moving to it (this was right around the time when we were
considering rebuilding in PHP or Perl). Also, at the time one of the big
reasons why it seemed interesting was because I hadn't done any PHP
programming, and I think version 4 was either still beta or really new
(I never would have considered moving from Perl to PHP 3.x).
Cheers,
Chris
