Antony,

So this is the reason you think you can break the upcoming release now? Please revert it, as I don't want to see yet another broken release just because you decided you can do what you want.

Instead of bothering me with your opinion

Please stop "bothering me with your opionion" regarding Zend and current policies in PHP community. Just follow the rules that were set for all the developers, including you. By actively ignoring the rules you just show your disrespect to the others. I pretty sure you don't care about it, but we do.

have a look at my code and tell me where it is broken.

Oh, please. You said it yourself that your code is not stable, no need to waste my time on your code.

Unless you find a bug this discussion is pointless.

The discussion is more about you and your attitude.

And spare me your believes that PHP developers commit to HEAD first and then backport to branches. This is a) not true and b) doesn't lead to not broken releases (Hello Zend)

IIRC you did manage to break a release (or even two?) either, so please calm down and change your attitude.

and c) doesn't solve the sync problem, because those working on HEAD often don't care at all about backporting.

This sentence doesn't make any sense to me, as "those working on HEAD" add either HEAD only features or backport them into 5.2. There are no 5.2 only features, and you're trying to make one.

This has happened f.e. a bunch of times with security patches that were never backported from HEAD.

Great joke, Stefan! I really like it! "Several years ago somebody forgot to MFH a patch from HEAD, so I decided to leave HEAD out of sync and I don't give a shit what others think about it". What a LOL =)

When I say I will take care of later merging the new code into HEAD when I am 100%ly sure that there is no obvious bug left, then I will do that. I see no point in reverting the code. If you fear that it breaks an upcoming release then simply install PHP 5.2 and try uploading files.

No problem, I'll do it as soon as you revert the patch and leave it for the next release.

Wait.... that would be a too easy check and you would not be able to flame... (Wait... the same check would have catched the Zend fault in 5.1.3...)

Aw, you're so smart, but you didn't catch the problem either, did you? -- Wbr, Antony Dovgal
