-1 on 5.3. The window for adding new major features to 5.3 is obviously long gone. Not sure why you are even suggesting it. +0 on parts of it for the next major release. You still haven't convinced me that strict type checking won't cause more problems than it will solve, but I do see the benefits. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
