Either of those are good options IMO, although we should make a high-level decision if we want to do PHP prefix or we defer that to PHP 6.

We've already waited too long given how many classes were added in-core & extensions since 5.0 was released. Just like we have a naming convention for functions we need to decide on one for classes as well. As far as date class in particular, I think we just need to pick a non-intrusive name for the 2 classes that extension offers and be done with it. And we need to get a bit on track as well. Let's outline possible options for names, vote on them and move on to more important things. The two naming options available so far are: Option A: DateTime & DateTimeZone Option B: PHPDate & PHPTimezone More names are welcome. Ilia Alshanetsky
