I' opposed to add a class now in 5.1, even with a rename, we better to do what I explained you again this morning: - Keep 5.x as it was, only the underlying code has been replaced - take the time to define, implement, document and test a new date/time API in php6, we can even do that in pecl and put it in php-src at a later point --Pierre -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
