Thanks for showing me this,

    Maybe you signup for the redbook residency
    
    
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/residents.nsf/50da6a28780ffa688525701b004a4f21/9c452617fac17d8c8525707c0048e0bb?OpenDocument&Highlight=0,php
    
    
    
    Benefits to Resident
    PHP is an exciting technology that has widespread industry support. By
    participating in this residency, you will become an expert in understanding
    and explaining how this technology runs on IBM i5/OS.
    
    Description
    PHP is a programming language that many find easy to learn and use, and it
    integrates well into the Web environment. PHP also has built-in database
    support.
    Support for PHP is being added to the next release of IBM i5/OS. This
    support will be added within the OS/400 PASE environment. The port itself
    should be relatively straightforward; the most work in the short term will
    be in ensuring database integration with the PHP environment.
    
    Objectives
    The objective of this residency it to write a redbook that describes the
    installation, configuration, porting issues (of other PHP applications to
    the iSeries), performance tips, and known best practices. The book may
    contain two approaches: one for PHP developers trying to run on the
    iSeries, and the other for traditional iSeries experts moving to the PHP
    language.
