For Feature Requests, I agree that we should disable them all together on bugsweb, and add a page for redirecting the user to proper channels like you mentioned. Besides this, I would like some more statuses for the bug tracker, or maybe rather auto reply/quick fixes instead of having to manually copy/paste over and over again. An example could be: "This extension ($ext) is no longer being actively maintained (Status: Suspended)" Also we got quick fixes for "Try a snapshot (5.4)" and even 5.5! -- regards, Kalle Sommer Nielsen ka...@php.net -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
