It is about being blind and stubborn to hold opinion different than yours. And *this* not an opinion but a fact. Got it. > This is not about borking the language with useless features.

"Keeping up with the Joneses" is not a good idea in personal life, and is not a good idea in language design. Not everything Joneses have we should have, just because they do. You have to have better reasons. Sometimes there are better reasons, and we do borrow all the time. But doing that *just* because they have it makes little sense. *When* we decide that it makes sense for PHP, then we can look at how others do it and see if it translates. -- 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
