It would be nice if there would be some 'official' statement as to there will be some kind of namespacing concept before the time where the language core will start picking and reserving class names in a broad manner. To me it seems that right now the "inner circle" seems to agree that the core may pick names at random and has a right of way, so that it is up to the php infantry (us coders) to use prefixed class names or whatever to at least mitigate the risk of name collisions. Anyways, I think there should be a discussion about policy issues: - Deadlines for new features/BC breaks - What may be changed in RCs, when will a RC have to be revoked and the release process re-started - How can we make sure at least some of the more popular projects have enough time to resolve problems - Who may do what and who will have to agree/sign/back the decisions made? - How changes/BC breaks will be recorded and announced in an clear, non-understating manner - What long-term enhancement/feature/change/migration/BC-breaks plans are there? I still don't understand why - despite all the discussion here - the 5.1 release is still on the php.net website, being publicy announced and there is not even a single hint what problems users might run into. Every major company has a disaster recovery plan to make things go quick in case of emergencies. The release is out for almost 24h now and nothing happens. -mp. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
