Hi all, I have been following the internals list since I heard that the unicode effort had grinded to a halt (so I am quite the noob into the php internals world). I have some ideas for possible ways to implement unicode handling. My guess is that most of these have been discussed earlier but I do not seem to be able to find any good way of reading up on the choices that led to the php 6 unicode implementation (please direct me in the right direction if such a source is available). It would also be great if there was a source of information that listed some of the caveats of the project that I am guessing is what is making it hard to implement. I proppose that we make a wiki page that attempts to summarize information about unicode support in php. Some of the headlines on the page could be: * Desired features * Cavets * The "php 6 way" * Possible alternative "ways" I think this would give a good overview that would make it easier to make the right decision on how to move forward. I would like to organize/collect/manage the information, but I need help in finding the needed information. Is this a good idea? Is it silly to have someone, that has not been involved in the earlier unicode discussions, trying to summarize on them? Regards, Jacob Oettinger
