OK ... I am someone sitting directly in that bucket ... Does it irritate that I can't vote ... yes ... but while others who can agree with my views I am happy with the status quo. Yes I would like to contribute more directly, but there are only so many hours in the day. That most of my spare time is still being taken up living with the consequences of changes in PHP is water under the bridge now! My own contributions are in areas that help people USING PHP ... with Firebird and other tools and I will continue to support that activity. I could make a case for those contributions being accepted to give me Kamma, as the rules already permit, but to be honest I'd rather NOT have third parties like the framework teams or FIG adding more of their own demands into the core? Just coping with e_strict is enough at the moment without adding all the PSR- changes :( Just how much of the 'must have' features will ACTUALLY make PHP more productive? PLEASE can we get back to a level playing field and use PHP7 as a base to get something stable and fully compatible with modern requirements. Only put stuff in PHP5 now that is NEEDED so we can finally catch up! -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
