[Dev] New PHP XRI tools repository

[Nika Jones]

Will:

You are correct we are building an XRI resolver for PHP and definitely  
plan integrate with JanRain's PHP OpenID library. The full plan is to  
offer a comprehensive toolset to help PHP developers easily integrate  
using XRI in their projects.

While this project is designed to be complementary to openXRI in all  
aspects (os license, objects, getters/setters, etc.). I would like to  
keep it as a separate project for now, while ensuring interoperability  
and user expectations.

As I said I'm very excited about the use of XRI and look forward to  
being an active contributor.

Thanks,

Nika
