Re: [VOTE] Integrating Zend Optimizer+ into the PHP distribution

Philip, Shouldn't we be focusing on how this makes PHP better? And not nitpick > about a percentage point or two? > Well, this passed with 62.8%. Property accessors failed with 60.7%. The target for acceptance is 66.6%. So 3.8% is enough to throw away, but 5.9% isn't? I think the point of this discussion is that rules are rules for a reason. You can't be high and holy and deny one RFC judiciously, and then hand-wave and say the next RFC doesn't matter because the intention is there (or whatever rationale is). Either we stick to the rules, or we throw them out and install a BDFL. Either way, I don't care. I just think the current they-sometimes-matter-depending-on-who-and-when-it-is-raised stance is deeper than BS, it's dangerous and is actively turning away contributors (as well as harming the project)...
