What is your current stance? If my voice counts, I'm against including any substantial changes (and this patch I think *is* substantial change) in RCs. Especially that I have already seen this patch changes the API (breaking binary compatibility inside RC cycle) and there can be more things hiding into it. Knowing risks of entering this patch are not even theoretical, but very practical - I think it would be best to enter in on more safe ground and not in late RC. If one thinks think this patch *must* be in 4.3.2, this should mean 4.3.2 is held until we (for whatever reasonable definition of 'we') are sure this patch would not break anything. Also, the "here's the patch, it will be included in the next version" approach sounds very sane to me - actually, the best solution to this. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ +972-3-6139665 ext.109
