Hi everyone,
I've been working on adding arbitrary precision decimal support as an
alternative to *bcmath. *I have created an extension based on *mpdecimal*,
which is what Python 3's decimal module is also based on. I haven't
released or broadcast this project yet, because I wanted to discuss the API
and implementation with internals first.
See: https://github.com/php-decimal/php-decimal
Any advice, commentary or objection is welcome. :)
Thank you,
Rudi Theunissen
