I have voted in favour of the RFC, I don't have any strong opinions about the "since" parameter, so I will let other people judge on this matter. However, any discussion about how deprecations are currently being triggered is, IMHO, irrelevant to this discussion. PHP, at this point in time, triggers a deprecation diagnostic via the same mechanism that notices, warnings, etc. diagnostics are triggered. There might be value to separate the deprecation diagnostic mechanism from the other diagnostics to have them be globally toggled on/off and sent logs into a different file than the other diagnostics, but like said by others, this is an orthogonal issue to this one, and one that has long existed in the language. Every other internal attribute that has been added to PHP has some visible effects to the user, having it do nothing seems rather odd to me. Best regards, Gina P. Banyard
