Lots of feedback, it seems almost an even split between PHP and JAVA as a
webapp backend.
I'm basically building the following test platform.
Linux/Apache Server
PHP4
The following is an interesting Open Source group since they are focused on
developing PHP widgets, which may potentially meld very well with JS widgets
built with the DynAPI. Gonna at least play with it and see what I come up
with.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpwidgets/
JAVA
looking into locomotive.org JAVA app engine. http://www.locomotive.org/
Sources contributed by Richard Emberson.
I like this one the best since they are leaning to embrass PHP as it is and
it doesn't try to kill the entire webapp flock with a single "rock" like
enhydra appears too.
This way I can play around with both and see which ones feels more, well...
"throwable" to me.
