Replace 'shitting' with other less polite terms ;)
The only reason vista exists is to tighten M$'s hold on DRM - something that 
has no place in ANY modern office environment, so we DO need a real operating 
system that does not provide all the multimedia crap when all the machine 
needs to do is work like a good old fashioned typewriter. Having to go out to 
sites to fix things that are only broken because of the multimedia crap is 
getting pigging annoying :(

I can imagine something similar using the EXTENSION/CREDITS files. As
long as we have valid emails, it should work well. No need to assign
to one of the maintainers as they will all get the emails. Will it
help us to work more or faster? No idea ;-)

Well, there's a reason - not every developer watches bugs closely. 
Thanks to great work by Antony, there's somebody who does that, but we 
can't realistically expect every maintainer to do that, so assigning 
bugs is the means to alert the developer that this bug is (at least 
potentially) in his domain.


Assigning blindly is not the right procedure. There needs to be a proper 
REFERRAL process so that other people who are working in the area are made 
aware of the problem. If the bug is flagged with the correct area or package 
name, then anybody can pick up the baton. Simply 'assigning' a bug to say Wez 
when AS HE SAYS - there are other developers - is a pointless waste of time.


Requests for someone to LOOK at a particular bug could be made, but 
the decision on assignment should only be made by the person DOING the 
work?


I think assignment is request to look - and if possible fix, if not - 
one should indicate he can't accept it. Of course, as we know, in theory 
practice follows theory, in practice it doesn't - so there are cases 
where bugs are assigned but not really looked at.


HOW do you 'request' a group of developers look at a bug?
Personally I scan the bug summary each week to see what has popped up on my 
areas of interest ( The 'feature requests' should be killed from that !!! ) 
and that would seem to be the most productive method possible. Antony and 
others just needs to make sure that bugs are correctly classified and 
duplicates flagged and removed. There are assigned bugs there that have not 
moved in months and it would be nice to see the total number of BUGS going down.

Wez,

Tony does a difficult job of sifting through hundreds and hundreds of  
bug reports every week. He fixes a lot of stuff himself and assigns  
the ones he cannot to the extension maintainers. That's how it works.  
I understand that it is a very demanding and at times very  
frustrating work since there are tons and tons of bogus reports and  
some really nasty people reporting them.


I for one appreciate that people don't have time for PHP and that is  
fair enough. But I also have a great admiration for people who devote  
their time for keeping an eye and resolving all those bug reports.

understandable.
But if you are busy and not going to maintain PDO, let's do the right thing - 
step up and say:
I won't do it anymore, does anybody want to take it over?

It's not about you personally, the very same situation we have with several 
other extensions:
ext/session, ext/wddx, ext/ftp, their authors are either gone or just don't 
care.
Who supports ext/xmlrpc nowadays? Those weird SAPIs for toy web-servers? Nobody.
They are still maintained, but the quotes change the meaning to forgotten.

Andrei's point was, you can't keep telling someone that you're doing

Wez, assigned bugs are just a part of the problem.
Looks like you stopped reading my mail somewhere in the middle and the second

Ok, I'll try to clarify it again.

You did a great (I mean GREAT) job for PHP in the past and you seem to be 101% busy with your 
(real) job during the last months. That's completely understandable, but we should know what to 
do with the code you wrote - either you're still going to work on it or we can forget about 
it and move along.


That's what I'm trying to understand - do you still maintain these things or 
should I stop bothering very busy person?

I'm not getting angry, I'm just asking a question. 
Today we have maintained extensions and maintained (without quotes) extensions, 
we need to separate them somehow just to be honest with the users and with ourselves.

This way we also could speed up the process a bit, as the bugs wouldn't be 
assigned to wrong persons.

The same question applies to other maintainers of maintained extensions, but you just happened 
to say the thing which reminded me that I wanted to start this discussion looong ago..

No, there is no some specific problem, there is a major problem with the quotes around 
the word maintained.
We either need to remove them or be honest and change it to unmaintained.

This thread has nothing to do with me, (except with regards to my 
interest in PHP6) but in my experience when a task is assigned to a 
group not an individual there is no accountability and no incentive to 
either get it done or pass it to someone who can. IMHO it's better to 
leave it unassigned than to assign it to a group.


Surely it should be the responsibility of the maintainers to keep an eye 
on incoming bugs, and the person monitoring new bugs should simply be 
making sure they have been reported correctly and against the right 
category/project. At least then you can get an accurate picture from the 
bug list.

with the bug report. Wouldn't this avoid all this pointless discussion?

my 2c


 I will try to look at my assigned bugs as I have time and goodwill.
 Each thread like this reduces my goodwill for PHP dev, because it
 turns from a fun thing to do on the weekend to a petty political mess
 that no one wants to be involved in.

   One of the points that Andrei was trying to make was that if you
   really don't have time for something, you should say so, so that other
   people that do have the time can step forward and help out.
 
 
  You said it yourself.

 Yes.  And perhaps because English is a crazy language, I want to point
 out, again, that I didn't accept each individual bug, only to never
 work on it.

 I'm out of this thread now.

Yes, and I did so, I gave the hand to Sara and Andrei. Until I got the
thing back on my todo lists without explanations.


This is different from the case where only that one person is actually

Nothing justifies what he said and how he said it. It is not good to
act like that, no matter why or  who. Remember your blog's post about
you doing shit? It is just about the same, bad attitude and

I can see 47 open bug reports assigned to you (this is bugs.php.net only, there 
are also 25+ bug reports in PECL).
Most of the reports are COM, PDO or streams related. Do you still maintain 
these extensions?

If no, please say so, we'll start looking for new maintainers.

There is four maintainers for PDO, two ro three for stream, and a new
maintainer has recently been added to COM. How hard it is to
__communicate__ with each other without ending in such pointless
discussions?

You may ask the other maintainers to check the opened bugs and see if
they can take care of them, a short mail to Wez to know if there is
already something done or not, or to get more details. end of

With respect Tony, I think you're being somewhat dickish here.
I'd be totally fine with you saying that if I had actually assigned

It's pretty clear that I've been too busy to work on those bugs, but
that's fine; we have other people (also maintainers) that are
perfectly capable of working on them too.

neither of us have had the time to finish it yet. The JIT at runtime
is done but the input decoding (callback, default values change,

Correct.  Dmitry or I, or possibly Sara, have to finish that.


About the php6 todos in general, I have to take a look again to the

The facts are these: you signed up to work on the input decoding

We agree on one thing, It is a critical part. That's why I took so
much time to explain how it could work and why it is important to do
it this way.

You told me that you were working on php6 in the last two or three
years. Why did you not work on that earlier?


You told me that you made some progress but also ran into
problems. Over the course of a month or so, I asked multiple times

If you played ping-pong with the possible volunteers while trying to
get it sooner than later, you are the only one to blame, face the
truth.


while you made miscellaneous
patches to GD and zip extensions.


And for many other projects, what I do or not during my work day or in
my free time is not your problem. What does that have to do with this
issue? Nothing.

However, to clarify this question, most if not all patches I applied
to the PHP tree in the last months are security fixes or critical bug
fixes.You have to understand that such tasks have a higher priority
than PHP 6.

That being said, you are not in the position to tell me what I have to
do in my free time, in PHP or not, understand that.


At the end, all I was asking for

I tell you that it does not reflect the fact and your lack of
objectivity is not funny anymore.Your (selective) memory has holes and
I can't accept such terms to describe what I do for PHP.

But you completely forgot to mention that I gave the hand to Sara.
After a couple of weeks and yet another discussions on IRC, I realized
that I was again in charge. Do you really think that you can treat me
like the last wheel of the car and then come back to beg me? You must
be kidding!

Now about what you (or any other) think about me, I cannot care less
but I do not accept personal attacks, I never did. It is simply
unacceptable and respectless.

I do my best for PHP and in my free time. And for what I hear, a lot
of people appreciate my work, many more  than you and the 2-3 other
PHP jet setters having troubles with me for all possible reasons.

I provide fixes, new features and improvements in time and every time
it was asked and only in my free time. Consider to be slightly more
respectful and I may consider to work more for php6. But for now and
given the current mess, PHP6 is not my priority. You want something
from me? for a given date? Pay me or be patient.

But Is the PHP development list the right place to discuss our
personal feelings? I don't think so.

Short version:
this discussion is ridiculous. You want something done before a given
date? you have ways to get it, but you cannot push a developer (even
me) like that, especially not when it is a volunteer.

If you have something constructive to say, I will read it carefully
and try to help you. If not, feel free to continue this senseless
discussion, but I have better things to do than reading such
stupidities.

Please, guys, take this argument off list if you want to continue it at all.

The main point Andrei tried to make was lost in that argument. PHP 6 needs 
commitment from everybody involved, somewhere along the line, and we all - 
even hangers-on like me - need to know that someone _will_ step up to make 
filtering possible if we're to believe in PHP 6 ever happening.


Johannes and Tony both made good points. There are still issues with 
streams, but more - there are real problems in the way that PHP_5_2 is seen 
by many devs as the current development branch.


There needs to be a sitting-back, at some point, and a 'where are we up to?' 
moment. Lukas has done his utmost to provide that already, but it hasn't 
changed anything that way. I'm still watching commits to PHP_5_2 that are 
never merged to HEAD, and not only in ext/pdo.


You still need to beat the Perl 6 release folks ;) but maybe pushing too 
hard isn't the way to go about it... I don't know. I just know the

What PHP6 needs is **not** repeating the same old  mistakes over and
over again :

1. It should be developed without pressure, with quality being more
important than schedule, or you expect the first PHP6 releases to be
as buggy and broken as 5.0.x series do you ?

2. It should have the less possible BC breaks, otherwise it will end
up in a much worse scenario than PHP5 is nowdays ( aka. a very small
adoption after 4 years), yes , Unicode is a nice feature, but not
everyone cares about that. ( I guess Europe and Asia does though)

3. pressure oever developers does not make any good, is disrespectul,
specially when they are not getting paid to work.

Hello internals,

  I don't see any progress for PHP 6 in the last several months. And we
head more and more into a situation where people no longer develop in

All I know is that we are waiting for the filter extension. As it appears

somebody else here. Anyone care to jump in who has the indepth knowledge?

And besides this filter issue, what are the remaining pieces to be done?

my memory is rusty on this point, but im sure my response was that ICU

are cached per-process by locale identifier, so they would cause issues in

Hi Marcus,

for making HEAD the main development branch we should try to reduce the
number of failing tests. Running run-tests.php -n currently still shows
42 tests failing on my current setup. As long as that many tests fail
it's hard to see if a patch breaks anything in there. I recently spent
some time on fixing a few of these tests but there is still enough work
to be done (especially with run-test.php -u ...)

 right now, I do not see Pierre doing the job he offered so we need to find
 somebody else here. Anyone care to jump in who has the indepth knowledge?
 
 And besides this filter issue, what are the remaining pieces to be done?
 
 Best regards,
  Marcus

IIRC there were some problems with the streams.
Andrei, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Please tell these people to MFB. Everyone has to MFB or ask for help
if they don't have the time, knowledge or motivation.

This information is incorrect and misguided, please understand what
you are talking about before making inappropriate claims. Simply
asking me or really any other developer of the filter extension would
have been more productive. I do check my email, and am many times on
IRC.

The filter extension is not holding up PHP 6 except it does not yet
support unicode but that's not the point. Right now all of PHP is
60.56% unicode converted.


And besides this filter issue, what are the remaining pieces to be done?


Now moving on, what you might be referring to is the upcoming input
encoding system (again, nothing to do with ext/filter). We have had
some (very) long discussions about what has to be done, including some
off list, and how to do it. As I remember, there are two people who
are in position to complete this task, both Dmitry and myself but
neither of us have had the time to finish it yet. The JIT at runtime
is done but the input decoding (callback, default values change,
errors, etc.) is not finished.

About the php6 todos in general, I have to take a look again to the
wiki and my todos for the extension I maintain. This long weekend may
be a good opportunity to do some planing.
