Hi Tim,
Thanks for your feedback.
You're right about the timing. I hadn't fully considered the impact of last
week's security release on the availability of contributors. I'm happy to
postpone the vote to allow more time for discussion.
Regarding the namespace, I see your point. I chose "Csv" because it is
simple, clearly describes the functionality, and follows a similar approach
to existing namespaces such as "Uri" and "Dom". However, I'm open to
discussing alternative approaches if a broader naming convention would make
more sense for PHP.
I also agree that hearing from Gina would be valuable.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your concerns.
Best regards,
Damian
