I started it. I'm not going to ask anyone to dig into the archives, let's just

*snip*I've started reading, saw Wordpress... almost stopped right there, but decided *okay, this is too rash of me, read further*...."My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined".gifIt ended exactly how my first judging brain wave thought it would go - this whole thing is about fixing WordPress by changing the language.

But can we ignore it?I think it deserves a fair discussion.There might even be a "simple" solution to it. Maybe a version number that is auto-added to the namespace in composer?Maybe the wordpress community could fork composer and do it?Like what are we talking about? 10-20 lines of code?BestJochen
