Re: libpurple php binding

I didn't yet test it, but it definitely looks interesting :) Will try to test it this weekend. Are you planning to add object-oriented api? php-code would become much cleaner. Constants can be converted into class-constants too… function-names are not obvious, currently, and calling 4 functions without parameters for initialization seems a bit… redundant. By the way, PHP 5.2+ has DateTime object, which can be used instead of timestamp. I'll be give more thoughts after testing.
