Benjamin, Maybe I was naïve, but I thought I had a better way to make both weak & strict camps happy, instead of just ignoring the strict camp altogether. While there was some opposition to it - it mostly came from the main proponents of the Strict camp, and, well, you :) Clearly right now it seems that not a lot of people bought into the coercive approach, and while I hope it can be turned around - I realize the chances for that happening aren't stellar. Given we can go to a vote on Bob's RFC tomorrow without having to delay the PHP 7 timeline, I don't see strong reasons not to do it, and put to rest any theories about what might have happened if v0.1 ever went for a vote.
