But, as I said before, I don't understand why simplicity should mean in its consequence that software designs you find these days in the Java World cannot be done with PHP. The essence (in one sentence) of what I would like to see:

Ok, just wondering, can you explain why, for an average person, learning PHP takes an average of the time it takes to learn Java? Once you do, you'll have your answer. We can't have it all, there's a price to staying simple. We have a pretty good mix today, and we're already stirring a bit towards complexity with PHP 5. It should not become a trend. Zeev
