This is definitely new information to me too. I expect that this is what you wanted to use the student for - work on your own special project - but this is something that GSoC is definitely not meant for. The original idea behind this project was a rewrite of run-tests.php, not something else. Now I hear that a different project was being worked on by the student, and even *this* didn't get anyware. I'm pretty much annoyed by this cause of action - we still didn't get any work done on run-tests, and the student's time was wasted on doing work for some private project. regards, Derick -- HEAD before 5_3!: http://tinyurl.com/6d2esb http://derickrethans.nl | http://ezcomponents.org | http://xdebug.org -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
