I agree. I think it will be a mistake to do this, and it will hurt a lot of people upgrading to 7.4, and people who voted "yes" seriously underestimate how much old code is out there. And the benefit of this change for the user is virtually non-existant (in fact, one of the listed benefits - "As such source code may leak if PHP relying on the short open tags is executed on a configuration where this isn't enabled" - is exactly the situation that would happen when the RFC is implemented). -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
