I really wish we had a process similar to Python's PEPs [3] [4] for PHP. Having guidelines for issues like adding a new module [5] or deprecating a module [6] not only makes the development consistent but also transparent to our users.It smells a little too processy to me, but I wouldn't mind a system that borrowed some of the ideas. Like a single collection point for feature proposals and a common format for them. We could simply steal PEAR's PEPR infrastructure for this (http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-overview.php).
