I'm not too familiar with this space myself, so a few key questions for such a PSR: 1) How would this be different from/not serviced by PSR-3? 2) Do you have a rough, vague sketch of what such a spec might look like? Or a sample of an existing implementation/API docs you can link to for those of us who don't know the space well? 3) Who are the players in that space that should be involved in such a working group? Off hand it sounds like we'd want someone from Sentry involved, for instance, both for their expertise and to help ensure it actually gets adopted. Have you reached out to them to see if they're interested? (Making a spec from on high and then handing it to 3rd party implementers to adopt doesn't have the greatest track record.) --Larry Garfield -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PHP Framework Interoperability Group" group.
