Well, whats your contribution? I mean, ideas. Like what would you like PHP to have in the version 5? I am in some other free projects, and I can tell you that there is so much to do, that the developers don't have time to finish them, so you'll see in the TODO lists things like: "Didn't have time to finish it. Maybe in the next version." But let me say one last things, the developers also need some ideas, like what you want, and if ASP has something interesting that PHP doesn't then you have to go for it! At least that's my thinking Saludos... ;-) -- Porqué usar una base de datos relacional cualquiera, si podés usar PostgreSQL? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Martín Marqués | mmarques@unl.edu.ar Programador, Administrador, DBA | Centro de Telematica Universidad Nacional del Litoral -----------------------------------------------------------------
