Hi,
well it seems that the initial vision of E_STRICT to denote future deprecation is no longer valid. Then again it might have been a misunderstanding from the beginning as E_DEPRECATED would have been the more obvious name in that case.
I still think that a flag on a per class basis would be the better solution, but I guess I can accept this change.
This reminds me again about my question of how E_STRICT warnings are added and how things are then handled (E_STRICT becomes E_ERROR or the feature is removed entirely) with the future releases. I think a clear, written down policy is needed (and as always may be overwritten via common sense on a case by case basis).
regards,
Lukas
