Hi, Someone in the Doctrine channel just brought up the issue of having to look forward to ensure mid term compatibility when choosing names for identifiers. I guess with namespaces and other things will add new reserved words. I think we should have a prominent place on php.net with early warning for reserved words that will be in future php releases.
Meaning somewhere like http://php.net/reserved ? :)
I mean we should frequently mention it. Hmm maybe what we need is a forward compatibility newsletter instead. Just something that summarizes the last 4 weeks worth of BC breaks :) Guess this can/should then however be semi independent of php.net. I will ponder if I have the motivation to do this. People helping would be an encouragement :) regards, Lukas
