I did. I didn't read the filenames, apparently, so I did indeed thought you were talking about Phar (which scared the frcking life out of me). > Grow up. No, I will not. I have to much "Finnish" (Scandinavian?) blood in my vain ;) I still find Phar waaaaay to dangerous to _enable by default_ and I still do not think you are *fit* to handle such extension. (Yes, I did indeed say it. And I will not apologize for it. I really don't.) You have your own agenda (just like everyone else), but your focus isn't on PHP, or the Phar ext. It really does scare me. I don't know of anyone that really actually does know what the ext is capable of (and *I* know it is capable of *great* things. Seriously. It could swing near the PHP3 "hit" all over again. The ext is *definitely* a *great* extension.). Nothing against you personally, but when *noone else* knows wtf the Phar ext is heading, or anything you do, I find your commits and communications skills very freighting. Be it Steph or Pierre or whomever tries to participate. It really does scare me. On to similar (related) topic: Did you (or Dmitry) ever communicate? Once upon a time I heard rumours that "Zend" had already experimented with an extension "likish" Phar, using 'jar'. Did anyone ever get "bencharmarks" or whatever from that experiment? What about compared to Phar? I really *really* think we should hold off with Phar, at the very least by default, for at the absolute very least one point release. The filter extension was *important* extension. Maybe even as important as (the future will tell) the Phar extension. But I do not think it is ready. I really really don't. Sorry. -Hannes (fckit. I am taking this "online". I really do not want Phar enabled-by-default. Sorry.). -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
