Joe,

What you suggest certainly fits within the offer, our goal is to be sure the PHP code involves the IBM i system in some way. That's what's important. How is up to the developer. In this specific case the PHP would be accessing an IBM i function to call RPG, hence the phrase "...other IBM i functions..."!

2. Post one open source program that:

* Runs on IBM i
* Works!
* Performs a non trivial task
* May be written in RPG, CL, COBOL, JAVA or PHP ( for the
purposes of this offer PHP is included as long as it
accesses DB/2 and/or MySQL where the data engine is DB/2 or
other IBM i functions, a data queue maybe?) .

Jim, I think you should also include PHP code that calls RPG. Using PHP
as a thin client over RPG business logic fits what you're trying to
promote, doesn't it?
