Re: PHP on .NET DLR

Hi, So that's it? 'Nobody cares' (tm)? 'You can switch to Ruby if you want to, and nobody's stopping you'? Or am I on the wrong list? Does the PHP community have any interest in PHP on DLR? IronRuby is going to be hosted on RubyForge, so it is going to be a community effort ultimately, and that's one of the things that attracted MS. In contrast, the PHP community is SO hostile to DLR that they are ignoring a fully finished implementation--phalanger? To be frank, with Silverlight, I don't think anyone has a choice now. The hype is too much, and the number of hits that ironRuby gives on Google is staggering, especially considering its nascent pre-alpha state. So PHP will be one of those things that didn't adapt to the changes and then loses the war. There's lot to be learned from history--VHS vs betamax or Redhat vs Caldera. Mindshare is the key. You lose that, and then there wont' be anything for anyone to monetize. Thanks for listening.
