Quercus, a Java PHP implementation


The fine people of Caucho Technology did a 100% Java implementation of PHP5 (released under GPL) called Quercus. While I don’t know PHP as well as Yoghi it presents a interesting platform that has an enormous community. As always, having choice is a great thing and this look like a really promising project that could allow PHP apps to scale better as it compiles to bytecode and enables usage of native Java libraries.
