One of the remaining todos for streams is making sure that the persistent sockets stuff works (pfsockopen); if there are any persistent resources gurus out there, your advice would be appreciated because there appear to be a couple of different ways of making things persistent but none of those methods are clear or documented. I'd also like to have a general consensus on the interfaces idea/RFC that I brought up recently: if the opinion is in favour then I would like to get that infrastructure in place and have the streams code make use of it: that serves two purposes - it will demonstrate how to use the interface API, and will reduce binary compatibility issues if we do decide to introduce it later on. I have already written the code for the interface API, so it's really just a matter of getting a majority "vote" in favour of having it in PHP. --Wez.
