Hi Rasmus,
The way the sentence was worded at
http://www.php.net/~derick/meeting-notes.html#name-spaces led me to
believe this:
"First we briefly discussed the current name space patch, but as we were
not all familiar with its workings we did not go into deep detail for
this. Then we saw an alternative implementation of name spaces with
"Modules"".
Anyways, from what you said, is namespace support only going to be added
in PHP 6? I have been basing my patch on 5.1, hoping that it would make
it before 6, as the patch is small and has absolutely no BC problems.
Obviously, I don't agree on having to wait that long, but if that is the
case, I'll check what changes I need to do in order to apply it to PHP
6. Thanks for the clarification.
Regards,
Jessie Hernandez

the namespace patch was not looked at in detail, discarded, and then
the approach that was agreed on was _THE EXACT SAME ONE_ that my patch
uses. To add insult to injury, it's mentioned that Marcus was going to
provide a patch (my problem is not with Marcus, in fact, he was very
supportive and helpful when I was writing the patch and the __autoload
mechanism I'm using is thanks to his input. My problem is that my
patch was completely ignored and someone else was assigned to write a
patch, when the one I already wrote can be used).
How in the world do you know your patch was ignored? It wasn't. But it
also isn't going to work as-is, especially in the new Unicode world, so
it is going to take more than one person to play with it and see what
can be done. Marcus simply volunteered to do that.
