Thank you for you work! On the procedural note, I think it would be much better to follow the procedure like this: 1. Talking to extension maintainer 2. Submitting RFC 3. Announcing on the list 4. Publishing the implementation branch 5. Hopefully, review & improvement 6. Commit I hope the times of "commit huge patches first, discuss them and document later if ever" are behind us. Or at least we should try to put them behind us. As for the API, I'm not sure I understand properly what it is supposed to do (one of the downsides of no RFC). Is it for date calculations? What kinds of calculations you could do? What is IntlGregorianCalendar class - and why there is Gregorian one, but not others? If I wanted to work with Hebrew calendar, how would I do that? What does it do that DateTime doesn't? For the timezones - what is the difference between these timezones and the ones DatTime has - is there something additional that these provide? -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
