Hi!

1) ext/mhash in 5.3. ext/hash has all the functions, so the entire BC break will be that "if (extension_loaded('mhash'))" will need fixing if mhash is removed (answer both)
I) enable ext/hash by default
II) remove ext/mhash

I) +1
II) Can't we make mhash "stub" extension with dependency on hash so only thing you get when you load it is that extension_loaded is OK and no BC break? Dependency would ensure the functions are there, and we get the bets of both worlds.

2) deprecate ereg*. ext/ereg is an extension as of PHP 5.3. Since ext/ereg is more or less redundant with ext/preg and is likely to not get much unicode love for PHP 6, the question is if we should mark it with a E_DEPRECATED in PHP 5.3

-0.5
I'd say not yet, but don't care too much.

4) keep ext/phar enabled by default in 5.3?

+1

5) keep ext/sqlite3 enabled by default in 5.3?

+1

6) enable mysqlnd by default in 5.3? (answer both)
I) enable mysqlnd by default
II) also enable ext/mysql, mysqli und pdo_mysql by default since there will be no external dependencies in this case

0

7) should Output buffering rewrite MFH? this one comes with some baggage, we need enough people to actually have a look at how things are in HEAD and make it clear that they will be available for bug fixing and BC issues resolving. the risk here is obviously that any BC issues will be hard to isolate for end users.

-1 for now
Need more explanation why we need rewrite, what the rewrite does, etc. If there's a good reason and maintainer, then maybe +1.

8) MFH mcrypt cleanups in HEAD. either the make sense or they dont, so either (choose one)
a) revert in HEAD
b) MFH to 5.3

Same as above.
