Hi Magnolians!
As we can say, Magnolia has a good rendering system: it is generic, we can plug a custom rendering engine, extends it, intercept.. and many other things.
Nowadays, we can run JSP pages, Freemarker script and Coldfusion.

My question is: why not using PHP for front end? Imagine how many PHP-addicted developers Magnolia can reach.. Imagine a PHP page that can read JCR and an external, legacy, database.. or maybe a PHP page that uses Magnolia green bars and ImageMagick image manipulation library..

I don't know if this can be done as easy as we added Coldfusion support or Freemarker support.

Yes, a *pure* Java user / developer can feeling bad reading this post: mixing Java and PHP? Oh my God..
But for sure, I think that this could start new ways of Magnolia usage.

What do you think?

I've just search into the past mailing list messages and I follow those posts [1] and [2].. but nothing followed.

Did anybody already achieve this thing? Or something similar?

Anyway, it is only a point of discussion..
Matteo
