I think the choice of \u{xx} is interesting, i.e. using '{' and '}'. Afaik, one of the current best practices is to use json_decode(), like so: $ cat test.php <?php var_dump( json_decode( '"\u00c4"' ) ); $ php test.php string(2) "Ä" So your choice definitely will not influence this practice which is good, IMHO. OTOH I'm not sure if not using '{' and '}' would actually cause BC problems, but it's of no concern with your RFC. thanks, - Markus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
