- Joeri 13y agoHhvm is not a fork of php. To my knowledge it's a radically different codebase that reimplements php's api.

I think the most likely outcome is that PHP will adopt some of HHVM's additional features, but remain a separate project. IMO that's a great outcome, since we'll both likely drive the other to be better.
