Hello,

We were going to submit plPHP to core for inclusion but it is not ready 
yet. Namely it requires the apache SAPI which could introduce some 
portability issues. The other issues it has (such as some array parsing 
problems) are minor and could probably be fixed easily within the beta 
period but the SAPI is a show stopper.

As some of you know, we have also procured permission to relicense 
plRuby so that the project can include it in core. I have a version that 
works with -HEAD.

However plRuby is even a stranger beast as it uses an entirely ruby 
build system. I am also fairly confident that it does not meat the 
PostgreSQL style guidelines.

Is there enough interest in plRuby to get it where it needs to be for 
possible inclusion into core?

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
