You can take a look at the RFP if you like. It discusses the pros and cons

Thanks.

<http://wiki.php.net/rfc/namespaceseparator>I've been using namespaces for a
few months now with the backslash syntax, and I have to say that it doesn't
effect the aesthetics or readability of my code. Give it some time, I
suspect you'll get used to it in no time.

You might not be as stubborned as I can be regarding this matter :P

Your stubbornness should have nothing to do with the aesthetics of code operators. You've entered the discussion with a preconceived standpoint.

Backslash is just something not "natural" to me. Anyway, my obsession,
my problem. Was just hopping to find people as disturbed as me :)

And yet in Linux we use forward slashes for paths and we've never had a problem also using a forward slash for division, truncation, or one line comments. What have you ever escaped that didn't fall within some kind of string delimiter? A backspace outside of a string delimiter shouldn't cause confusion in most programming languages.

Cheers,
Rob.
