Hi!

Want me to find some more 50 people to vote against it?

If you find 50 active commiters against it

Ah, you mean active commiters..
Then you probably will want to know that the actual number is 6:5 if you count only active contributors and not 21:8. Where did you manage to find 21 active commiter btw?

We're having a conference these days, I believe I can find even more people just to show you how meaningless these votes are =)

OK, they are meaningless. What is meaningful?

The reason?

Wasn't that the main reason FOR adding this syntax?
The array() thing seems to you too hard to read and maintain, no?

Yes. In many cases new one is better than the old one. In some cases, it might not be - but nobody proposes to remove array(). One can find a way to mangle almost any syntax - that's not the point. The point is that it *is* useful in a lot of cases.

Nice.
So you can present PHP users as senseless robots that are unable to understand array() syntax and I can't point to the extreme UNreadability of [] because .. because .. you do not agree?

The next step would be to call me a blasphemer and pronounce anathema upon me because I refuse to vote for a feature that have already been voted against.
But why not? Go on, vote forever until it's in.
