If you know Perl, PHP should offer little problems.

Yes. And one of the modules will replace the existing PHP module, so
talk to your sysadmin about it. The replacement is a superset of PHP
itself, so your PHP scripts will still work.

There have been difficulties in the past, but these seem to be less
common now. The mailinglist will be able to help you if you meet
with difficulties.

Backwards compatibility and upgradeability are and will remain important
points in the Midgard development.

For technical issues, no, not at the moment, but the mailinglist covers
that quite nicely. If you mean deployment help, talk to Michael Ed
(blixten@blixten.com) who is now negotiating with a web firm about
a Midgard gig.
