The PHP 6 stuff is still up in the air. The original suggestion was to carry through with the deprecation of [] which I strongly vetoed since it would break everything. We can revisit whether we want to remove {} in PHP 6. I didn't think people had such strong feelings about it. From my checks with people, most had no idea you could even use {}'s on strings. -Rasmus Sascha Schumann wrote:

    don't get why you are suggesting to expend so many resources
    as part of a migration effort while it is obvious that there
    are no advantages at all in dropping {}.  It makes no sense.

Even the attempt of trying to change or remove some language feature like the {} thing IN A RC5 is unbelievably unprofessional.
For the 13th time. {} is not going away in 5.1. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
