This is in so many ways wrongly formulated. This is what we do,
always. Today (as in the last years) security is our top concerns.

The only responsibility we have is to deliver the best possible PHP.
And this always has been a matter of compromises.

That's the case. If you know areas where we do not that, please let us know.

For one, I am. I have been asking for years now to propose the missing
features so we can include them if desired. I myself implemented
features that happen to be provided by Suhosin. But to ask us to take
all or nothing is not going to happen as we are not convinced at all
that everything in Suhosin is actually a good thing.

The RFC process now allows everyone to propose such thing, including
you or Stefan (who still refused to do it). Happy proposing! And I
will be the 1st to welcome you.

Now that it is cleared (was already before, but better three times
than none), can we get back to the technical details of this
discussion and see what are actually the technical issues behind this
decision?

Cheers,
