Re: Tomahwk + PHP source of www.linux.org.il




1. I'm not using WML because:
a. I'd like iTomahawk to be used both as a pre-renderer, and both as a
powerful server side configuration mechanism.
b. WML seems too patch for me to use efficiently.

2. I'll probably convert to Apache's mod_perl with the embedded perl
support. Perl has far better capabilities than PHP for that matter, and
I'm afraid that sooner or later PHP will break down.

3. A "Tomahawk" is the name used by some American Indians for their
hand-axes. I don't know if the Apaches used them or call them that way,
but I called it because it should be Apache's best friend.

I believe I can re-organize my code a bit, and post it on my site, so
everybody will be happy.
