If IBM is going to support EGL, Java, and PHP on IBM i for the foreseeable future, why not explore how these can be combined to get the best of each technology?

I've been quite interested in the combination of Java and PHP. The idea is to get the best of both worlds. PHP and Java can already be combined using a PHP-Java bridge, which requires a Java runtime in addition to a PHP runtime. Or they can be combined using something like Quercus, which translates PHP into Java and runs solely in a Java runtime. I've installed both on my personal computer but have not had a chance to play with them yet. I think it would be great to have a set of tools that would let me easily mix EGL, Java and PHP to get the strengths of each.
