I'm taking it from both reality and the discussions we had surrounding the release process RFC (in short, the 'yearly' in there was subject to change without notice; It's not an 11th commandment). I see good reasons not to go with a yearly release cycle, considering there's next to nobody actually interested in consuming those releases, but that's another story. > >> > * Which benefits does Zend Inc. see in contributing the Opcode > >> cache? > > > > Simply put, this could benefit PHP greatly without negatively > > affecting our business in any way. > > And not simply put? Complexly put, this could benefit PHP greatly without negatively affecting our business in any way. I don't intend to become argumentative. You're obviously entitled to your opinion and I think that there's nothing I could say that would change it. Zeev
