The date extension functionality can be enabled, but we need to rename the date class to avoid naming conflicts encountered with PHP 5.1. There have been two names under consideration datetime and phpdate. Personally I'd prefer datetime, but after doing a quick search on google that seems like a popular name, already being used in various classes and libraries. phpdate (or PHPDate to comply with studly caps conventions ;-) ) on the otherhand is only used a very small number of times is minor classes therefor seems like a safe name.

If you chose PHPDate is the class name, I would no objections to including the functionality, assuming there are no technical merits for not including the extension.

It's been quite sometime since 5.2 was branched and looking over our "todo" majority of planned changes were made. Therefor I'd like to make an RC1 on Thursday next week and start the stabilization cycle of 5.2, so we can get a final in about 2 months. Once we start stabilization cycle, no new features will be accepted, so please use this week to commit any missing new features
or major patches that have been agreed upon and not yet applied.

This caught be a bit by surprise as I was unavailabe the last two weeks,
so I hope I am still in time with my todo items (enabling ext/date
finally, and adding ext/filter with a symlink).
