(What a concept.) * The static magic string is gone. * We have decided on an approach for magic methods. The updated RFC text explains it in more detail, but in short, "if __isset(), then use that to determine readable. Otherwise, __get() implies readable. __set() implies writeable." That should handle the use cases Nicolas was interested in. We consider the RFC feature complete at this point. Baring any further substantive discussion, expect a vote in January after the blackout period ends. --Larry Garfield
