We don't need timelines right now. What we need is some hacking time and to bring some fun back into PHP development. It hasn't been fun for quite a while. Once we have a body of new interesting stuff, we can start pondering releases with a release branch off of trunk that might cherry-pick a subset of the work in trunk and you can start making your lists and setting timelines at that point. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
