And I was saying that it seems evident that we will eventually need to drop the old code or we will have to keep maintaining it. However if the new "proper" code is OO then we are forcing OO onto people. If we also provide a procedural API for the new stuff, then we will have to call the functions something different than the current functions. Not a big issue as when we do drop the old code we can simply alias the new functions to the old names to get the old "nice and short" names "back". regards, LukasI dont see a pressing need for an OO API and I also dont think that PHP internal API's should one by one be moved over to an OO interface either.I think the point is to have date() working as it was, and have a *new* extension for all the fancy stuff (including OO).
