Thank you Pierre.

I very much look forward to the rejection being reconsidered.

Note that contrary to what is suggested in another subthread, I'm not
seeking for a community representative mandate nor justifying my request by
my supposed "status" in userland PHP. I did not mention Symfony in my
application because this has nothing to do with it, please don't make it a
"Symfony wants a seat" discussion. Yes, I'm making it personal, because it
is: I'm asking on my own personal behalf, as a free and independent soul
and mind.

My involvement in PHP itself pre-dates anything else I've done in the OSS
space by more than 10 years, here are my first bug reports, back in 2002,
PHP 4.1
<https://bugs.php.net/search.php?search_for=&boolean=0&limit=30&order_by=&direction=DESC&cmd=display&status=All&bug_type=All&project=All&php_os=&phpver=&cve_id=&assign=&author_email=okin7+at+yahoo+dot+fr&bug_age=0&bug_updated=0&commented_by=>.
Since then I've reported apparently 60 bug reports
<https://bugs.php.net/search.php?cmd=display&author_email=nicolas.grekas%2Bphp%40gmail.com&order_by=ts2&direction=DESC&limit=30&status=All&reorder_by=ts2>
and contributed to many others
<https://bugs.php.net/search.php?search_for=&boolean=0&limit=30&order_by=&direction=DESC&cmd=display&status=All&bug_type=All&project=All&php_os=&phpver=&cve_id=&assign=&author_email=&bug_age=0&bug_updated=0&commented_by=nicolas.grekas%2Bphp%40gmail.com>
.

Of course, I'm also involved in userland PHP and I think that's an integral
part of my application. I can give you some track records on the topic if
you want, everything is public.

If participating in discussions on php-internals counts, I apparently
contributed 177 times here
<https://marc.info/?l=php-internals&r=6&s=grekas&q=b&w=4>, the first
message in 2010.

Since contributing to the source code is also nice to accredit my request, I
do own some commits in the git history
<https://github.com/php/php-src/commits?author=nicolas-grekas>. That's a
ridiculously low number of them I agree. Many will consider life itself as
ridiculous, so I'm still proud of them, very modestly.

And of course, I've got this pending PR/to-be-RFC
<https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/5083> showing I'm not going to stop
here.

But if that's not enough, what's the bar? Who else passed this scrutiny?

Thanks,
Nicolas
