I think the real question we have to ask is "Do we consider PHPUnit"
standard for PHP Development Unit Testing ?
If so, PHPUnit gets a grant (or a chance to get one under the PHP
Project umbrella)
If not, then it doesn't.
I consider PHPUnit the standard for Unit Testing in PHP, now what do
you all think ?
I don't consider it as a standard, maybe the leading tool yes (no idea
if it is or not), but not a standard. There is other good unit testing
tools out there (lime, simpletest to cite two). My point was that even
if phpUnit may be the leading unit tests tool for php, it is not a
php.net project. That applies to other PHP frameworks, applications,
etc.
I think in general we can say the following order applies:
1) php internals (php-src, qa, docs etc)
2) any other php.net subproject
3) other php projects
if a proposal falls in 3) it needs to be really good and all the
prosals left in 1) and 2) need to be pretty unexciting in order to be
accepted.
this is essentially how things have been implicitly handled from what
i have seen in the past years. and so far we have had stuff in 3)
manage to "sneak" in this way.

Lukas
