Coming from someone who doesn't use php except when they have to: PHP today is so so SO much better then the blubbering eldritch horror that was php 4/5. I'm still not going to use it until they fix the ad-hoc/chaotic naming of their built in functions, but it seems there's a proposal to alias all their functions to new names that make sense and are consistent with each other. When that happens php will not just be widely productive, it'll be widely liked too.
