Well, George Schlossnagle already proposed to submit APC and other
useful extensions for inclusion in PHP.

http://news.php.net/article.php?group=php.dev&article=64437


At the time, it was not done because Zeev said it would be necessary to
add a directory in PHP tree for extensions that modify the behaviour of
Zend engine and it would require a volunteer to do so.

http://news.php.net/article.php?group=php.dev&article=64471

George volunteered to do it, but there seems to be no response to his
offer after that.

http://news.php.net/article.php?group=php.dev&article=64515

So, could George extensions be added to PHP now? Was that directory
created or it still needs a volunteer to do it?

Regards,
Manuel Lemos
