SAPI Announcement

Announcing a New Open Source Project: SAPI The PHP Development Group is proud to present an exciting new open source project. This project is based on concepts developed for the next version of PHP. We decided that other developers may benefit from the use of this code, so we have split out development into a separate project called (temporarily) SAPI, or Server API. SAPI is a standardized web server API that will enable a developer to write web server extensions (plug-in, or whatever you wish to call them) using an API that will allow the extension to be compiled for multiple web servers, such as Apache, Netscape servers, O'Reily Website, MS IIS, and many more. All server specific code is removed from the extension, and placed into the SAPI library. SAPI will also be cross platform, and thread safe, for those extensions designed to work cross platform. We are currently seeking developers who are familiar with web server API's and/or server extensions, to join the project. Currently there is some draft code which was based on code written for PHP to serve as an example of what we hope SAPI to become. Our first priority though, is gathering knowledgeable developers who are interested in drafting the the API prior to code development. Interested persons should visit the SAPI web site at http://sapi.webyes.com/ (Note, also looking for someone who wants to design a web site for the project) Regards, Shane Caraveo -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
