so the problem is, that the userland is under-represented in the

devs.
to make things worse, they cannot write patches for the core, and the
core
devs rarely work on something which they don't particularly need or
like.
and I think that the only option where we can change that, is that
us, the
php userland devs has to be more active on the mailing lists, irc,
bug
tracking, writing RFCs etc.
I'm a userland developer, reading the list since two years I think. And
I must say I'm totally frustrated about the developing process itself.
The actual proposal process is always the same:
1. Someone proposes a new feature.
2. As next there is a long discussion about the topic which ends up
with more dissent than consensus.
3. A long time nothing about the topic.
4. Start new from first point.
And I think in the near feature there will be no changes with the old
structures.
