Wow. I can see why they're doing it (those are sources of most complications ans security issues in the language, references being especially weird and tricky). But dropping those would certainly mean very heavy incompatibility with PHP, by which point it'd be completely separate language. Which probably excludes Max's #2 from consideration altogether. > Actually, I think a year is a pretty short time for ops to switch to > PHP 7. I think we need to decide on this pretty much immediately. Should it be on the TechCom agenda and should we have some public discussion on IRC in RFC format for this soon? -- Stas Malyshev [email protected] _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
