Although the zip ext is a useful thing to have, I think it should stay in PECL as Tony says we're trying to move things to PECL... so a -1 from me on the current proposal to add ext/zip to core with the Zip classname.
Seems silly to have a place like PECL where extensions can live their own life with their own release-cycles
That's another problem for another offtopic discussion: "own release cycle" is just a myth, because of the "symlinks" used to link PECL extensions to core. You can't have, for example, development version in PECL and stable version in the core, you HAVE to stabilize your code before any PHP release, because it's basically the same code. -- Wbr, Antony Dovgal
