While looking over the release notes for 5.4a1 (http://www.php.net/archive/2011.php#id2011-06-28-1) I noticed that the related session_* functions had been removed.
As I interpreted it, this goes against the spirit of the release RFC for x.y+1.z releases, specifically: - Backward compatibility must be kept - API compatibility must be kept (user land) The removal of these functions makes sense (to me) but I think in order to respect the release RFC we should either: a) defer the removal of session_* functions till the appropriate release b) update the RFC nomeclature to cover this use case (as Florian pointed out, the current wording leaves it open to interpretation) I do realize I'm late to the party (sorry) and I'm not sure if it's too late to revert course on this specific change...but I think the session_* removal change will make the upgrade process more difficult because of its' far-reaching impact. - JJ -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
