Its been about a week since RFS for features to go into 5.3 has gone out and while there was not a "flood" of ideas there is a substantial list of key changes people would like to go into this release. I've compiled a list of all of the suggestions I've received, they are listed below in a form that will hopefully make it easy for people to vote their yeys and nays. My hope that we can reach an agreement within 1-2 weeks so 5.3 can be branched and work on it can begin. List of Feature Ideas ---------------------------- 6) Remove safe_mode, register_globals and magic_quotes

PHP6 ONLY Lets not have another round of broken systems when just upgrading a minor version.

7) Introduce mysqlind library into core and use it as a backend for PDO and mysqli extensions (possibly enabling them by default)

? - Would they get in the way if you are NOT using PDO or mysqli Why force us to load something that is not generally used by everyone? In general PERSONALLY I would rather PHP5.3 was bug fixes rather than distracting from getting PHP6 out of the door? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://home.lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://home.lsces.co.uk MEDW - http://home.lsces.co.uk/ModelEngineersDigitalWorkshop/ Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
