Nice to hear some work is done but I get very annoyed every time I see the words "behind the scenes" (or something alike). I guess it was because it's impossible to discuss anything on internals without the noise coming from "outside"..? Could we finally make this list read-only for every one but the @php.net people? I get enough spam already, spam from this list is not something everyone should suffer from.
I don't have a php.net mail address, but I would like to say, that please do make this list read only. Why? well, because I do make a living using php and thus I like to be up to date with things that are going on with its development, which is why I read the internals list.
But what I don't want to have to wade through, is opinions from people who don't know what they're talking about or maybe they do, but will never really do anything about it other than writing messages to the newsgroup. In my mind, opinions from people, who are not ready to follow them up with actions are much less important than those from the people that do.
Honestly, I just find it so hard to understand, how come people who have never done anything to improve php seem to think that their opinions have any weight in choosing the direction the language should take. I certainly would not expect anyone to care what I think about namespaces or late binding or whatever topic, unless I can back it up with patches.
Also, you might want to let messages through, that have patches attached to them, so newcomers still can get those in.
Oh, and thanks for all the hard work in making a great programming language that I love to use every day.
