In other words, if your vision of PHP is not taken up by all PHP developers, then you intend to begin a campaign against PHP. It won't work. The typical PHP user easily recognizes FUD. I don't appreciate this argument that some large group of PHP users are silently suffering for not having PHP re-shaped into something that looks more like Java servlets. And it's insane to suggest that Zeev or any of the other PHP developers ought to bend to the will of any group, even a majority. Zeev clearly has a vision for the future of PHP. His guidance and the guidance of other individuals have proven always to be of the highest order with much benefit for us all. Most of us are making our living, directly or indirectly, from PHP. This is strong evidence that PHP's design is not flawed. Still, if you do think PHP ought to change in a way with which the project leaders disagree, there is a way to go about it. PHP is open-source, and these kind of disagreements in open-source projects are solved by forks. Instead of asking that the project change to your desires, make a copy and start your own project.
