Re: CVS Account Request: magicaltux

Hi, I believe Andrei's also OK with the solution for this bug. As he said when one of my colleagues went to a PHP conference (I couldn't this day for personnal reasons), "English is not the only language". Having an hardcoded encoding for the "php-side of life" is bad, we could either make this a php.ini entry (or use a php.ini entry), or stick with the way most xml functions are done in PHP (only accept UTF-8, that's what my patch does). Encoding non utf-8 valid data to base64 (WDDX "binary" type) would be the best option, the only problem is the overhead of doing this (maybe people have a need for transmission of binary data, but for now the PHP WDDX extension isn't able to manage that, it's something else I'd like to fix, and encoding everything from "ISO-8859-1" is not a solution). For reference: http://bugs.php.net/46496 So, unless someone have time to bear with me and commit my stuff to WDDX (I've already started some things for WDDX packet streaming, but anyway 5.2.7 isn't at a point it will accept any new features) I confirm my request for a CVS account with the ability to edit ext/wddx/ and I hope to be able to fix bug #46496 before 5.2.7 release.
