This is not about PEAR dictating, and the PEAR developers are not those who would suffer from this PHP date class in the first place, but every user of PHP and PEAR::Date as well as every PHP developer who ever named a class Date. The problem is only more obvious because there is a popular PEAR class with this name. As a side note: There was a time when I thought PEAR was kind of an official PHP class library. You're almost implying that everyone who has ever used PEAR classes is just stupid. I think if PHP claims to have the right to introduce new standard classes with very common names, there should at least be a list of reserved class names and a notice about that fact (Know that was proposed yesterday on this list). Better would be namespaces or a PHP_ class prefix, of course. Regards, Sebastian -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
