I believe that PHP made it probably because of less syntactic sugar
(PERL is sooooo sweet ;-) and probably easier installation / lesser
requirements. For EmbPerl you need PERL, mod_perl and EmbPerl, for PHP
you just need PHP.

The question is IMHO if they want to migrate. The PHP and the EmbPerl
community is quite different IMHO. And also today one of the big
advantages of PHP is, that it's available at nearly every mass web
hosting provider.

And don't forget: PHP = People Hate Perl.
