PHP-GNOME and the Summer of Code

Hi all! If you are not already aware, I had submitted a proposal as a part of Google's Summer of Code to PHP, that concerned the development of PHP bindings for GNOME. http://www.kix.in/soc/php-gnome.pdf (Erm, that document is a sub-set of my original proposal to GNOME and hence you might be interested only in the deliverables section to see which libraries I intend to wrap) A bad combination of events, led to the rejection of that proposal by me, although I did not intend to, in spite of the fact that Andrei was prepared to mentor it. The project has therefore been shelved from Google's program. However, I would still very much like to work on it, in fact, that is what I have been trying to do with my rampant extension making :) Anyway, now that we have Andrei's approval, I can start work on it. Any help in any form would be much appreciated: Comments, Suggestions, Criticisms, Documentation or Development. Do have a look at the proposal and let me know what you think. Once you are convinced that we go ahead with this mini-project, we have to decide on a technical issue: Do we develop the extensions by simply adding directories to ext? =OR= Try and develop a method by which, the GNOME extensions can be made into a separate package? Oh, and if you're panicking: (Don't touch CVS now!) or (We haven't even made an alpha yet!) or (What? Who's going to write the docs?!), stay calm. No-one's doing anything yet, we will thoroughly discuss how to go about this, before starting any concrete work. Most probably, we would want to open a new branch in CVS for this, or, host the project on sf.net or someplace similar. As mentioned before, all your suggestions are most welcome. Give it a thought and let me know. Cheers, - Anant
