I'm still quite unclear on *why* one would want to rewrite a complete
package like SugarCRM in Ruby; after all, PHP is supported practically
anywhere there's a web server, and any package big enough to be worth
translating is likely to have an extension API. Further, it's not like
it's going to be simple to extend the spaghetti that the translation
produces in Ruby...

I'm also curious how this approach compares to that of the phuby
library (https://github.com/tenderlove/phuby) which provides a PHP
runtime to Ruby code.
