Hi Internals,
Together with George, I'd like to propose an RFC for a long-standing
problem PHP has:
casting floats to string depends on the locale settings. As this behaviour
is nonsense, and
because it can cause quite serious problems, we would like to get rid of
locale-dependence
in PHP 8.
Please find our RFC at
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/locale_independent_float_to_string.
Regards,
George and Máté
