Thanks to all those who reponded. I will be asking my boss about getting
some sort of funding together to build it. Hopefully I can get him to part
with some cash :)

If it does get built what is the process for handing it back to the PHP
guys to get it incorporated into PHP itself? Ta-Lib uses a FreeBSD Style
license.

Is answer to what platform I need it for. Both Linux and FreeBSD :)

--------------------------------------
A bit more background as to why I need them :)

I can't believe I only just came across this library now :)

I spent the later part of last year writing an online stockmarket
analysis application in PHP. Since I didn't know c++ in detail I had to
write all the data import and analysis routines in php. This
obviosuly would generate quite a bit of speed difference to my
import routines. 2-3 hours for the australian stockmarket.

Recently we tried to get someone to convert my php routines to c++ but
they didn't quite get it right.

So my main question is has anyone integrated this into the PHP
source code. I would love to be able to use these routines in my php
scripts. If noone has, is anyone willing to write it? I am sure I can get
my boss to chip in some dollars.
