Overall I would say, while painful I do not really see the point in investing development resources into keeping ereg alive, since its just a duplication of efforts. Then again I have avoided ereg since PHP4 days. The ereg userbase will be the determining factor if ereg makes the jump to PHP6 I guess ..
Should it be deprecated then? Adding notes in the manual right now should buy some time to get users to switch to preg. Personnaly, like you Lukas, I haven't use ereg for years in favor of pcre. Olivier
