Req #68875 [Com]: LINK http method not implemented

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68875&edit=1 ID: 68875 Comment by: sebastien dot houze at gmail dot com Reported by: pedroresende at mail dot resende dot biz Summary: LINK http method not implemented Status: Suspended Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Built-in web server Operating System: Ubuntu 14.10 PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Guys, don't we need to move forward? LINK/UNLINK is a draft but I can attest that many people already use it. The usage drives everything & BTW it's just a debate about an HTTP verb, nothing more! In fact, php is using nodejs http-parser https://github.com/nodejs/http-parser code. And guess what... nodejs http-parser code has adopted LINK/UNLINK support since few months! https://github.com/nodejs/http-parser/commit/e557b62744e4f487a303b25b27c56947d7a8bacc Maybe it's time to backport that in php source? I can make the pull request and everything needed to have this pull request merged. Furthermore it could be backported to every actively supported php version.

I fully agree.
