It's not about whether we like the FIG's direction or what "PSR" stands for (which doesn't make sense btw) - that is indeed OT. My message was different: the PHP RFC process can't get blocked because of a third-party group, especially if your reasoning for that is to follow "standards" which aren't standards at all. Anyway, hopefully there will be more details on this RFC once voting is restarted so we don't have to have such silly arguments.
