Hi Andrea, When you re-open the voting, please can you have an option that is 'Yes - without numeric typehint' ? Although I like the idea of the RFC, having a type-hint that matches multiple scalar types seems distinctly weird to me. It really needs a separate case making for it, separate from the 'should we have scalar type hints for the current types' question. cheers Dan On 14 September 2014 00:30, Andrea Faulds <ajf@ajf.me> wrote: > Good evening, > > I’ve given up on my plan B, so I’m putting this RFC, finally, to a vote. > > I would urge you to vote in favour.
