Derick,
A few weeks ago, I was at a conference where you told a room filled
with hundreds of developers that phpdbg was no good, because you don't
know how to use it.
This is a strange sort of silence, and does not invite us to
co-operate.
When you invented dbgp there were other protocols in existence, not
sure why we are expected to reuse a protocol. It so happens that the
phpstorm guys working on integration seemed keen on something new. I
don't see the problem in that. If the only reason it exists is for
projects like phpstorm and they are actually going to put time into
trying something new, then why the hell not.
I'm not sure why it matters what kind of language we use on phpdbg.com,
not sure why you think it should be under the control of the php group
either.
If you had wanted to co-operate, you could have spoken to me at that
conference in person, or to any of us in IRC, on any day. You chose to
do what pleased you.
We should be allowed to do the same.
