It boils down to this: I want to avoid all the grinding of teeth we had with keeping 3.1 up-to-date. PHP needs to be re-structured to meet Zend, and I would prefer if we did these two things (restructuring and Zend) separately, having a working version between each change. The alternative is to start with a fresh php4 tree, but then we must make sure extensions are kept up-to-date (better than we did in 3.1). I think we will need "official" maintainers for each extension for this. - Stig -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
