As much as I do not like the way this topic was brought to the list. A point has been raised. The chnages done in the latest patches, like the XML based protocol, are not small changes and will affect us, our users and external tools for a long time.I understand that discussing things too much prior to apply it takes time, energy and sometimes could kill the motivation, but this is how we reach consensus. I do not think it is too late to have this discussion, maybe part of the php specification too.I am a big fan of phpstorm, but it is by far not the only tool around. The discussions here, if we filter out the classic bashing and not so well formulated critics, try to figure out if the choices are actually the best ofr php, now and for the next years. So. Yes, I also have to ask, humbly, both of you to also stay grounded and accept to participate in a constructive discussion. Maybe push up a RFC, documenting the current XML protocol, see the pros/cons, etc. Other can also join this effort. I am sure we can find answers to all these questions soon, if we leave the sentimental parts of this discussions out of this, focusing on the actual technical and design facts.
