We have been trying to do that, but there's been some resistance and hesistance so far. I think a lot of PHP people don't yet see what Quercus and running on a Java platform can offer them. Some just don't want to spend the time to change over, which is understandable. Java folks are much more excited. I recently gave a talk at the WordCamp in San Francisco (WordPress's conference for users and developers) and a lot of people were just confused by the concept at all. There are tons of smart people in the PHP world, we just need to get them looking at Quercus more seriously. If Quercus users would blog, post, and talk about it more, especially with success stories, I think that would go a long way in making that happen. I think Nam just fixed one of the Code Igniter bugs that you brought up earlier and we'd be happy to hear about any more that you run into. The nice thing about fixing bugs for one PHP application or framework is that it's likely to fix a bunch of others. I'm pretty sure we don't have the complete Zend Framework going as of yet, mainly because it uses the SPL extensively and we've only got about 25% done.
