That's where PHP 4.x has been for a long time now. That's the point. It's time to not even do that. Why is this thread still running? The language for announcing PHP 4's funeral is already sorted out. The objections to it are all in the "some people say" camp. Let's just post it already and get back to arguing about what PHP 6 will offer. :-) -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 6817012 "If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas Jefferson -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
