[snip] Yes, I absolutely agree that Rasmus is awesome and his accomplishments are far and beyond amazing, but I'm saying that I think that Rasmus is motivated to stay true to PHP's philosophies and not be willing to rethink them: that is what I meant by that. [/snip] What, exactly, is wrong with staying true to the philosophy? If you created a language based on a certain philosophy wouldn't you want to stay true to them?with regard to the ever changing world of internet this is the quote from the top of Rasmus' resume: "The web is changing. It is more dynamic and more programmable than ever before. This new programmable web needs tools and systems that can talk to each other in a way that is both useful and approachable. The learning curve has to be shallow and the results immediate. This is what I do." 'nuff said, right Jay?
