Dear Internals,
This seems like a good time to remind this list that we are all trying
build a better PHP. Each of us has a different idea of how to
accomplish that goal, but it is still our common goal to improve the
language. Each one of us has something unique that we can contribute
and we need each other to do this successfully.
The last few weeks we have been discussing concepts that greatly
impact on the future of PHP. These changes have the potential to be
the foundation for PHP 6.0; as such it is critical that everyone
participates to help create the best language we can. While doing so
it is important to be polite, civil and fair, particularly on this
list where it is more difficult to resolve misunderstandings than it
is in chat.
Here are some behaviors that are appropriate:
- Asking members of the list to vote on an RFC
- Politely disagreeing with someone's proposal
- Using a longer voting window than one week
Here are some behaviors that are inappropriate:
- Asking members of the list to vote in a particular way
- Dominating a mailing list discussion
- Engaging in a heated debate
Lastly, I ask that people take a moment to reread our mailing list
rules:

I hope by being polite, civil and fair we can build a better PHP
together.
