Hi all,

I have designed and successfully prototyped a native Windows binding
for PHP. This binding is already capable of doing dialogs, controls,
and a lot more with very few lines of code. PHP can thus be used as a
tool for developing native Windows applications, so it can compete
with several much more expensive languages/environments. Go to
http://hypervisual.com/winbind/ for more details. This library will
eventually grow into a full-fledged IDE. I believe this idea has great
potential in the low-end market given the enormous installed base of
Windows users and the ever-growing interest about PHP.

I'd like to open the code source *and* make a profit at the same time
(although I'm not sure if that's possible), so I'm open to any ideas
or business opportunities regarding the large-scale development of
this product.

What do you think? Does this idea have potential? Would any serious
company be interested in investing on a project like this?
