Hmmm, could be if. At this point, no one is sure, because no one has tried very hard to do the same thing (better) without the ! syntax. Doing it with mappings and flexing the stack is good, but it's hard to say it's actually better. If we can find an alternative, we can, if we can't. Patrick has a veto, like everyone else on the PMC, and so long as there's a technical justification for leaving it in (and right now there is), then the veto would be valid, and what the rest of us think wouldn't matter. As it stands in this moment in time, we have a switch around the ! idiom, because it is a security flaw that people need to understand before enabling, and that's all. The only mention of deprecation was an aside in the release notes, which I removed ealier in the week. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
