Well, methings everyone is interested :-) What it takes? Knowledge of C and how to write PHP-GTK extension; nothing more. It depends on the complexity of the widget. Easy widgets don't even a line of code because most of it can be autogenerated. However, If widget starts to pass all kind of pervert C structur pointers around with link list on their function cals you will get some problems porting them. Generally, if you start working on a porting widgets to PHP-GTK, thats the list to ask you concrete question. - Markus
