Count me in for learning PHP in a group. I'd love to contribute but dont have the skills... yet. Anyone else?

I'd be willing to learn PHP too; it has just seemed very daunting to take on by myself. A small group that can work together to learn the ropes (and not take up too much of the developers' precious time with repeating the same answers for a dozen different individual students) would be a great thing.

BTW, I ran across an article about analyzing the development of large-scale PHP projects, which might help for something like MediaWiki that's been developed in so many small pieces. A Development Infrastructure for PHP (by Tony Marston) is here: http://www.tonymarston.net/php-mysql/infrastructure.html It's a little over my head, I've only been skimming it to get some ideas on what I'm getting into, but it looks like it *might* be of use to our heroic development team.

Anyway, count me in.
