Below I quote some of their mails. Hi, I think one of the problems with this is that even if php-dev comes up with a system for determining which feature it wants to see in PHP, we still depend on Zeev, Andi or someone else @ Zend to implement them. An RFC system would be a support for Zend's decision-making. At the end of the day, due to the licensing issues, php-dev is not the body governing the language, it has an advisory role only. - Stig -- Stig Sæther Bakken <ssb@alltheweb.com> Fast Search & Transfer ASA, Trondheim, Norway
