If anybody (being a contributor to a clone or some "user") sees anything in any implementation that they want to be part of PHP they can under the RFC process. If anybody thinks there is need for a specification they can start writing it and look for help and review. Statements that something "should" be done by "somebody" won't work in a volunteer project. With that this discussion is finished for me. If anybody wants to reiterate this we can do this off list, not taking time from others with a meta discussion giving no results. johannes
