It already has the MongoDB namespace btw: http://php.net/manual/en/book.mongodb.php And I would say that I would not agree with that namespace changing to (nothing) *if* it would be part of the PHP core distribution, instead I would choose for it to not be part of the core PHP distribution to avoid breaking BC. cheers, Derick -- https://derickrethans.nl | https://xdebug.org | https://dram.io Like Xdebug?
