Wait, you are suggesting to enable this empty class and rename it? And
then he will rename it again for phph6? That's plain stupid and
insane.
No. Derick wants to enable all the code in the date extension
(methods of the date class and so on). The only way I can see us
doing it is by renaming the 2 classes the extension defines to
something that won't cause namespace problems.
Hate to be a pain, but _what_ namespace problems? Where were all those bug reports the first time this was enabled? Why hasn't Date in PEAR changed its name to include the PEAR prefix? Aren't these 'namespace problems' so much vaporware?
