Why is it that you all fight worse than my 3rd year old cousins? I
don't hold any authority or figure what so ever, but I watch
internals as a developer to be forewarned, but really, all I see is a
bunch of children fighting with each other.
Stefan has made contributions and has helped... He's right about
certain things; Yet why everyone is attacking everyone is beyond me.
Are the other OS languages like this? Python, Ruby, Perl? Do they
all experience the constant fighting and arguing and flaming that
goes on the php internals list?
Maybe there should be clearer rules for how bugs get assigned (I like
the idea of only assigning the bug once you start to work on a
solution.... that ways it's left for whoever has the time to fix it).
Anyways, Aren't we all adults? Can't we communicate like it and stop
trying to take each others legs out?

Perhaps he just thought you were best-qualified to fix the bug, since
you obviously understood what was going on well enough to have
commited code recently.
I mean, he's got to assign to to somebody, or it won't ever get done.
If you can't do it, re-assign it to somebody, or let him know you
can't do the task, and he'll pass the buck on to somebody else.
Why am I getting into this?...
Look, guys, you're all working your asses off, and you all have great
ideas about what should happen and what's best for PHP.
And they don't always match up.
But this constant sniping and flame-war stuff is not really conducive
to anybody getting any work done, volunteer or otherwise.
And it sure doesn't look good to the casual reader who's maybe
interested in starting to work on PHP CVS source...
Imagine you went to a job interview, and the employees are having a
huge pointless flame-fest argument right outside.
You gonna want to WORK in that environment?
I think not.
Can you all try to set aside the personality conflicts and focus just
on the facts of what needs doing, and why, and discussions about what
makes PHP better?...
Whatever personal problems exist between developers, these kinds of
flame-wars are pretty ridiculous, imho...
