Rasmus,
I already wrote an RFC, I already wrote a patch and none from php-src
gave me some valuable feedback.
During private conversations while flaming messages were popping on ML
thread, I updated the code to be more PHP compatible and when I went
to update the RFC on wiki, it became offline.
BTW, if you think Annotations wouldn't be so popular, please tell the
Symfony users (Routing, Validation), Doctrine users (Entire Mapping),
Typo3 users, Zend Framework (XML-RPC), PHPUnit users that this feature
is useless. If this doesn't count 2000 users using the feature, I
think only wordpress users may count this.
Nobody has argued that there isn't a use for annotations. There
obviously is. The argument is whether it needs to be in the core of the
language when it isn't inherently a runtime thing. A single standard for
annotations and non-runtime tools for manipulating that standard is a
viable approach as well. That is what people are doing now, except they
all picked different ways of doing it. By putting it into the core you
are solving that problem since everyone will likely switch to it, but
the argument is that that is not a good enough justification for putting
it into the core of the language.
