Sorry for the delay, i'm actually working in another city and i have not 
a computer at home yet.

I would continue to test in this direction, implementing all features in 
ispman. Actually i can assure only cyrus works great.

In consideration with the fact that the main design of ispman should 
change,  i suppose a fork or a new major release is the right thing to do.

Disaccording with the fact that peoples would like to implement a new 
interface in php, i think that continue to develop the project with only 
one language will be a cleaner way.

So, i encourage u to continue to mantain for bugfixes version 1.x, and 
start to plan a draft for version 2.x

Greets.
