I read about it on this list and find it very interesting, but unfortunately, I did not have the chance to try it out yet - my publisher would kill me for exceeding the deadline any longer ;-). Although I think it will not alter the way PHP/MySQL applications (the book's main topic) work dramatically right now, I still think it's a fascinating new feature and that some day soon, I should write a feature article about it for the book's companion web site. So thank you for your hint. Regards Sascha
