$this assignment and call_user_func question

Hi, I've heard rumors that there are plans to take away the ability to assign to $this in php 5. If this is true, I would like to place a vote to keep it, as it can be very useful in conjunction with __call()/__get()/__set() to implement run-time aggregation seamlessly In addition, will call_user_func() support static methods before 1.0? call_user_func('class::method', $args); Regards, Greg -- phpDocumentor http://www.phpdoc.org
