I'm also not suggesting a rewrite, although it seems like I didn't make that clear enough in the initial post in the thread. A rewrite just because you doesn't know perl also isn't a good reason because it will cost you a lot less time to learn perl than rewriting slimserver in another language.
But, the purpose with the thread was to check if there are some developers available that really is willing to participate in a rewrite. I suspect there isn't but I hope they prove me wrong (if they exist). Mostly when people are requesting a rewrite they asking someone else to do it but aren't really willing to do any work themselves. So if you feel a rewrite is a really bad idea, *PLEASE* don't scare away developers who might actually be willing to do the work.
