Ilia, we need to try to avoid this sort of thinking. This "vast majority" is most likely only a "vocal majority" these days. It is very likely that the non-mb users are actually the "few" and if we continue along your way of thinking then we need to have an ext/singlebyte that implements all these weird singlebyte string manipulation functions. We need to move towards a uniform platform that works for everyone without putting undue strain on either side. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
