If people want to become a part of a larger entity then they must
give up some of their individuality. This is happening already
but only for low level issues (e.g. case sensitivity). I am arguing to
do the same for other important aspects of the PHP technology.
Otherwise, PHP will be a boat where everyone paddles independently. Sure,
we are moving - but where to? We should all agree that there is a really
nice green island in front of us, join forces, and simply go there.
