Of course. But that doesn't mean that any > proposal implementing metadata automatically gets a pass. It is an over interpretation of my reply, which was to a specific mail. The additional comment about nobody having used annotations in other languages (meaning having annotations experiences, not related to clue or lack of clue) was about the proposal like using phpdoc, arguing about the syntax endlessly or even worst, one line reply. That being said, I'm not proposing it and I'm relatively neutral in here. However I am sure that PHP will gain a lot of new nice tools and php based services if we support annotations. If this implementation is not good enough then let us try to improve it, in the most constructive way (that means to leave the other totally unrelated topics behind us :).
