Hi! Stas, on a different note, weren't we going to roll a 5.4 alpha? I was going to write about it soon, but since you asked: I was waiting for RFC/voting discussion and vote in hope that we could get it all ready before the alpha, but it looks like it is taking longer than expected. So I t

[PHP-DEV] Getting a list of registered namespaces.

2011-06-15 Thread Richard Quadling
Hi. With pecl/http (DEV-2 branch) and the Functional extension (on github) both creating namespaces within the extension, I think there is a requirement for a mechanism to allow an extension to record the namespace(s) that it has, in a similar fashion to how functions and classes are known to core

Hi, I think that —in any context— the "if it aint broke don't fix it" is a very depressing attitude to have, and a very wrong one in any open source community. If the signal to noise ratio is the problem, I think its better to focus on that problem, not shutting down the signal. If PHP is a resou
