Ok,
I have a php interface to the spread group communication toolkit client api. Hard to say how wide it's audience would be, but it's very useful for creating distributed applications (it was written to facilitate some distributed logging and distributed filesystem caching needs). Code available from http://www.lethargy.org/~george/php_spread/php_spread-0.1.tar.gz
Dan Cowgill and I have a tracing/profiling/debugging extension which we would be quite interested in having included in php. Code available from http://apc.communityconnect.com/sources/apd-cvs.tar.gz
Also, there is our APC caching project, which has become pretty mature now . It has a relatively large following and I think it would benefit php to have a free bundled compiler cache with it (not to mention benefit from the much larger developer base). Code available from http://apc.communityconnect.com/source/apc.tar.gz.
The latter of the two are currently released under the QPL, but we'd be happy to relicense them under the PHP group license.

Hi George, actually what I meant when I said to send mail to php-dev was that you should describe your actual extensions. General-purpose extensions that really would be useful to a wide audience are good candidates for inclusion, although there has been a push to start the process of moving some of this stuff out into PEAR, especially for new extensions. -Rasmus On Mon, 27 Aug 2001, George Schlossnagle wrote:Hi, I was interested in what the process of contributiing extensions to php is. I'm a author/maintainer of a couple existing and soon-to-be php extensions and was curious about how to get them evaluated for inclusion as part of the existing 'ext' extension structure and just what the general processes involved with that are.
