Brad, Nothing personal (so please don't take it that way), but in my opinion this isn't a good enough assurance. Historically you will see people come and people go with Open Source development, and while you have a lot of free time to do this now, N months from now will you? As Rasmus stated earlier the reason the MySQL stuff is bundled is due to an assurance from the MySQL developers to keep it updated. They know their code inside and out. I'm not familiar with what you do or don't know, or what development you're active in either. Unless you were/are an active developer on the libxml code, the ability to introduce bugs completely dependent to the PHP bundle is increased considerably due to bad merges. I really see little to no advantage to this bundling yet. Only increasingly more reasons not to do this. >---------------------------------------------------------------< Dan Kalowsky "The record shows, I took the blows. http://www.deadmime.org/~dank And did it my way." dank@nospam-deadmime.org - "My Way", Frank Sinatra kalowsky@nospam-php.net
