I think having two conceptual frameworks in one language and having to deal with (and potentially maintain) code bases with mixed conceptual framework is a very bad idea. That would lead to a language fragmentation as strict code will become hard to combine with non-strict code within one application, and pretty soon people will start asking questions like "is this library written in strict-PHP or non-strict-PHP? ow, dang, we can't use it because we use the other one..." -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
