The PHP Foundation has proven itself as a valuable organisation. As long as it doesn't go the way of PHP-FIG with so much bureaucracy, rules, and processes, I would support this movement. > > I suppose that is actually nothing that an RFC can do as I imagine that > everyone from the PHP Group needs to support this and even an RFC > wouldn't legally be able to change anything in regards to that. > Surely, everyone who has contributed (i.e. has voting karma) has the opportunity to vote, and therefore, if they choose not to vote, that is surely their choice. I don't know the ins and outs of it, but I'd have thought an RFC, well advertised, with plenty of time to ensure as many people can vote who have rights to.
