The RFC has been updated to un-incorporate the strict-namespace elements; if there are no further substantive comments, I would like to open the vote in 2-ish weeks.To put my remark in the (canceled) voting thread into the correct place, quoting myself from https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/132151:
Without giving it detailed thought, I believe “Namespaced function, Autoload namespaced function, Global fallback” (i.e. swap steps 2 and 3) would result in much more predictable semantics already - the global fallback would work just as before, it just wouldn't have autoloading support. It's quite possible I'm changing my mind on that as well when I think more about it […]Best regards Tim Düsterhus
