RE: [PHP] Help me pervade Bristol City council to use PHP

We use it here (although you can't tell because we have set up the extension to be .html) http://library.open.ac.uk It queries a mysql database for the metadata as well as building up the pages.

To persuade them to use PHP I need to find some high profile reference sites. Looked on php.net but all the sites were technical support sites, not really corporate or government sites. This is not very good, the MySQL lot have a very good list of sites at http://www.mysql.com/press/user_stories/index.html and the following quote on there site "The MySQL database has an estimated 4,000,000 active installations worldwide, and up to 27,000 copies of MySQL are downloaded per day. Major corporations such as Yahoo!, Cisco, NASA, Lucent Technologies, Motorola, Google, Silicon Graphics, HP, Xerox and Sony Pictures rely on MySQL for heavy-duty, mission-critical applications." This is exactly the type of thing I need for PHP and am supervised it is not on the PHP site. So.. Can anyone give me some sites who use PHP that the people at Bristol city Council would of heard of (i.e. high profile sites). Also I think this type of thing should be on php.net.
