for the record, we had a lenghtly discussion back in november: http://www.mail-archive.com/internals@lists.php.net/msg48407.html the general reception was toward removing it for 5.4, but there were serious concerns about removing it also. I would also change my vote, I would go with keeping it deprecated, but turning it off by default (currently it isn't done, but the suggested development/production inis have this turned off), and remove it with the next minor version bump. if we have minor releases in the same timeframe as between 5.3 and 5.4, I'm fine with this. hopefully the security documentation will be in the better shape and we can figure out how to communicate such changes better to minimalize the impact. -- Ferenc Kovács @Tyr43l - http://tyrael.hu -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
