This is not true, I truly received a suggestion from Bob Weiland and decided to consider it. 4:3 is not a sign that a voting will pass or not, it's only 7 votes and we usually get ~52 votes during a 14 days voting period. > You're now making changes to the RFC and proposing to re-open voting > on the same day.

You probably meant "bc break" not "performance hit", and the suggested change about dynamic calls Bob did, if accepted by, is a minor change that will actually reduce the BC breaks not enlarge it. > The problem this RFC fixes is not a big enough problem to justify > making decisions about the language at the last minute, particularly > as the last version of the RFC I read breaks a whole load of valid > code. > > A lot of people tell me the opposite. I listened to your opinion many times and disagreed with it. Please don't express your disagreement with the RFC by mixing it with false accusations towards me. There is a huge gap between both attitudes. The disagreement is ok, but the false accusations coming from you make me sad. > cheers > Dan > Marcio
