I may fresh up our minds if we have a look at
http://www.zend.com/zend/mission.php:
1.)
| Zend is the leader in PHP technology. Our mission is to provide
| commercial viability and backing for PHP-based Web solutions.
2.)
| It is our objective to continue to be a leader in the development and
| provision of solutions and added-value services for Web site and
| application development.
3.)
| [...] with the goals of increasing their productivity and
| performance, as well as the competitive advantage of
| their sites.
4.)
| Promote the open-source PHP solution as a standard for dynamic
| Website development.
1-4.): is it only marketing blabla?
2.)/3.): how does Zend wants to be a leader in the development
and added-value services for application development and in
increasing the productivity of _big_ sites if the main developers,
namely Zeev Suraski, don't want to accept that things like a
_real_ PHP application server is really a thing the PHP community
needs _NOW_, not in 250 years? Do they want to play clowns?
4.): how do they want to promot PHP as a _standard_ for dynamic
web site development if PHP doesn't fill the needs of today's
problems? Do they really want PHP to be a 08/15 script engine
that is only needed for some db acces, formular validation or do
they really want to promote PHP as a standard that pushes away
other systems like WebObjects, Java, ...?
