You commented three times in that thread; the relevant one appears to be the second, and includes Symfony's HttpFoundation: - https://externals.io/message/108436#108591 - https://externals.io/message/108436#108838 "I would be very much in favor of a proposal that goes much further, with the aim that it can eventually deprecate PSR-7 and HttpFoundation, or at least large portions of them." - https://externals.io/message/108436#109007 I included that sentiment under "Disruptive to (or insufficiently unifying of) userland ecosystem" in the after-action on that RFC: <https://externals.io/message/109563>. To sum up: your position is that any HTTP-related offering here must be able to supplant both PSR-7 and HttpFoundation? Further: now that Symfony has its own HttpClient, should that be supplanted as well? > And voted against the RFC on the grounds that I didn't feel it was robust enough to > effectively replace PSR-7 and HttpFoundation. You were not a voter at the time. Memories fade, I guess. -- pmj
