On the contrary (but those who code in VB should be ashamed :-) But PHP's lacking enterprise features that sometimes drive me to JSP/Servlets. We need decent OO (otherwise code tends to become unreadable as soon as complexity grows) and we need all those J2EE candies, like transactions, messaging service, etc.. Fortunately Zend is lending a hand but that's not enough. Other thing that PHP lacks is a MVC pattern, like Apache Struts. Ok, say you have Smarty and other template systems, but they just don't cut it. I've used them and when the project gets big you start wasting a lot of time for implementing an easy feature due to the extra-complexity Smarty adds (and also a small amount of overhead). Doing a PHP community in Portugal would be quite interesting. Count me in.
