So CC'ing to him. Just poit them to php-dev and keep bringing it up until there is some decent comment on it, at the moment there is no democratic process in PHP, people just do what they want and someone normally knows some part of PHP better than anyother, IE if you have a sessions thing speak to sascha (via PHP-DEV), a COM thing speak to Frank, Daniel and Zeev via PHP-DEV, an object thing speak to Andrei, Zeev and Andi etc... RFC's are a good idea but as soon as they are posted to php-dev they are in the archives and it will be a big pain in the arse putting them in CVS due to the karma thing and people who dont have cvs access. php-dev is there so use it, yes we should formalise some of the more important discussions but it should all take place on php-dev. - James
