I love PHP. I've been reflecting a bit on the page release system Toby and I built over the summer. In about a week, 163 people have used it 902 times to print 5608 pages. The page-release system is a bit of a Rube Goldberg machine, using IMAP and LDAP for authentication (on two different servers); Samba, System V Unix printing, Unix command-line utilities, and MySQL -- with PHP being like the magical glue that ties it all together. I've used PHP for a dozen years for hundreds of projects and it's simply wonderful. Thank you, Rasmus, Andi, Zeev, and all the rest who worked so hard over the years to make it possible.
