Not to put too fine a point on it, but why wouldn't you just use Erlang?

Erlang dont have objects and namespaces

Why don't you just use erlang then? This isn't in PHP's interest.

I use Erlang in some tasks. Its very cool system but not have some features such in PHP. No OOP and namespaces. PHP stay at important point now and must determinate vector for main moving. I think its may branch to FP and inspired on Erlang. Repeat again its may be branch. But without major types like lists and tuples and pattern matching its not quite...but I dont know. These things make major flower.

Im sorry for love Erlang and PHP but it is true.
