That's true, though a lot of people like programming in PHP. If we were to give them something valuable, that would be nice from a distributed-and-sandboxed-web-services point of view ;-) >> I chose Guile as my Scheme implementation mainly due to the compiler >> tower, example language implementations and mention of a PHP >> translator under the cool ideas section.

I don't recall, did we answer your question about hosting? (Sorry, I've been spotty these last few days.) We talked about it and thought that implementing PHP could get quite large, so an external project would be better. Have you contacted savannah to set up a project? >> With that being said, is there another area of the project that >> would be beneficial for me to look at?

Mostly it's the library that's left to do, but there are some syntactic bits too. Andy --=20 http://wingolog.org/
