Re: RE: [PHP-DEV] 4.0.4 Release (Summary of thoughts)

Hmm I don't think anyone realized because Sascha didn't stop the release and fix those function prototypes. Oh well. And it wasn't announced on php-dev. How about putting the 4.0.4 NEWS section on the downloads page so that for a change people will be able to see what's new where they download? (It will hopefully make more people read it and prevent them from getting bitten by changes). Can someone please do it? And maybe at the same time we should update the front page.

I saw sascha commited some changes earlier but I think ALL changes should be made and perhaps depreciate some of the older functions that have been changed, check all the function names in the manual, update them to the official standard then think about 4.0.4, there is very little change in the sources to be done some renaming and alias' to be added, PS I think rather than aliasing the official names depreciated names should be aliased to the offical name and a comment as to when they were depreciated should be added (IE Version number) for future reference. 4.0.4 IMHO Should not be released until this is done then we can chuck a new msg on the front of PHP.net make sure its in the newfiles and try to get as many people to know about it as possible. But I dont think the depreciated names should be listed on the manual page. If people really want this to be the case then add another appendix of depreciated functions with a note to when they were depreciated. -- James Moore PHP Quality Assurance Team jmoore@php.net -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-dev-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net -- PHP Quality Assurance Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-qa-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-qa-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
