When the concerns about that "standard" were raised originally they got ignored and eventually few people moved away from the open process where people could voice issues to a forum were only people that echoed eachothers +1 were able to participate. After the agreement was finalized more people got the chance to join in, but that hardly served any purpose as there already was agreement. Your "approved vast majority of framworks and projects" argument is therefore bogus. They never approved anything, they really just got it stuffed down their throat. When you say that they can fixed outstanding issues in their updated "standard", how should the SplClassLoader accommodate that standard? SplClassLoadV2? In any case, no matter how much I disagree with the politics around that document, we are voting on the RFC, not that "standard". -Hannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
