Yes, I disagree. It's a time thing. Let's all work on one thing instead of *two*. Clearly you must see that there is not enough bandwidth?

It's not helpful, and it *is* fragmenting development. cheers, Derick -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
