If you could explain to me why holding back a useful feature that could help a lot of users today is somehow better for these users, then you might be able to convince me. Is it because by holding it back now we can force a portion of users who are desperate for this feature to upgrade to PHP 5 before they might otherwise be ready to do so? This doesn't sound like a service to these users. -Rasmus -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
