I suppose the alternative would be to withdraw the RFC now that a wider variety of voters are providing feedback than the other three threads.
I would let the vote go on, as there are still many voters who have not voted on this yet, giving the proposal more exposure and also giving you a more complete feedback about the outcome. And if this RFC has less voters in total when it ends than other RFCs, that could also be good to know. There have been quite a few big PHP features which failed in the first attempt, but then easily passed in a later attempt after more discussions and changes. Also, your hint about the operator keyword decision and on what that is based on might offer more avenues to change some minds - personally, I would be interested to read a blog article about this (even if it is quite lengthy, and even though I don't have a vote and am not designing languages), and linking that in an RFC could then be some helpful background for some people, even if not everyone reads it. And such an article might be interesting to people outside of PHP. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
