As I said before, having at least one version where the new versions of the functions are available, and the old versions aren't giving deprecation notices, is the 'cleanest' way of refactoring functions. Deprecation notices only deliver their value when the old versions of the functions are removed, and before then are a cost. > It doesn't really feel right to decide on > a deprecation for 9.0 / removal for 10.0 at the current time, but > deprecation in 8.3 + removal when it's ready seems to be okay. I think I don't understand your concern. If a problem is discovered with a planned removal of something, people on this project are mostly reasonable*, and a small RFC to adjust to the new circumstances would be very likely to pass. cheers Dan Ack * though sometimes they base their decisions on experiences/value different from my own, which makes it not feel like that. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
