This information is incorrect and misguided, please understand what you are talking about before making inappropriate claims. Simply asking me or really any other developer of the filter extension would have been more productive. I do check my email, and am many times on IRC.
Except you don't seem to reply to any of my emails or IRC chat requests.
The filter extension is not holding up PHP 6 except it does not yet support unicode but that's not the point. Right now all of PHP is 60.56% unicode converted.
That refers only to the function coverage, not the core functionality.
Now moving on, what you might be referring to is the upcoming input encoding system (again, nothing to do with ext/filter). We have had some (very) long discussions about what has to be done, including some off list, and how to do it. As I remember, there are two people who are in position to complete this task, both Dmitry and myself but neither of us have had the time to finish it yet. The JIT at runtime is done but the input decoding (callback, default values change, errors, etc.) is not finished.
Correct. Dmitry or I, or possibly Sara, have to finish that.
About the php6 todos in general, I have to take a look again to the wiki and my todos for the extension I maintain. This long weekend may be a good opportunity to do some planing.
I would request that you do not try to work on the input decoding feature since you proved very unreliable in the past.
