I have seen many messages on the list which I personally consider very wrong and/or misguided, and that called to vote yes. And I can, if I'd like to, attribute significant number of yes votes to it (of course, the true answer is I have no idea if it's so or not, but neither do you, right?). Does it mean those votes are invalid? Does it mean I can pick and choose yes votes I dislike and throw them out (I'd even include 1/4 of opposite votes just like it was done in topic-starting message, for fairness :) I don't think that would be a healthy process, do you? > Too late to tighten up the rules for this one, but something is > definitely not right with the current process. OK, what do you offer to improve it? Restrict who can vote? How? Allow votes only to people that are well-informed? How do you distinguish "well informed" from "agrees with me"? So far I don't think solution for this issue has been ever found, even when the stakes are much much higher than strict typing in PHP, but if you have a solution it would certainly be interesting to hear it. -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
