At LinuxTag, I had several talks about this topic:
o with Zeev on the press conference. I didn't think he really
was against the idea of an "Application Server"[1] (remember,
this is a buzzword, but with PHP getting more and more into
E-Business we definitively need stable implementations of
buzzwords).
o with Thomas Uhl from Millenux (they're deploying Linux on
IBM Z Series) before my talk on the B2B conference. He
said cascading app servers (which are behind the firewall)
are necessary for his customers. So he doesn't recommend
PHP to his customers but other languages (I'm not sure if
I remember right, but IIRC he recommends things like
ColdFusion)
[1]: first step IMHO would be definining "PHP AppServer",
e.g. what features (crypting data between AppServer and
web server and so on) are necessary and how other languages
(Java, Zope, ...) define their "AppServer".
