UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 6 Version 6 Support What is this board for?

Strange thing is, I actually wondered about the PHP version this morning, and then voila! he's already working on it.
I know PHP is the latest and greatest thing, Scream, but what advantages can it give us over Perl, except for the fact that some people just want or only have PHP? (Which is very hard to believe in this day and age)
