Hi, Leigh > Feels a lot like Rust > > http://doc.rust-lang.org/reference.html#use-declarations Yes, indeed Rust language is cited on the references section. > I'm not opposed to the suggestion, we really should have a shorthand > for condensing use declarations That's good to know, During the research phase it became obvious that a majority part of the user base would like to have a shorthand syntax for use declarations. > I just wonder if it could feel more "PHP". We tried other syntaxes and this one seemed the most appropriate because: a) Looks a lot like the already implemented traits conflict resolution b) Doesn't require to reserve new keywords c) It requires a minimal implementation and is easy to read and parse > Maybe I'm just nitpicking and it will grow on me :) FYI, suggestions for alternatives are still welcome. But I really hope you end up liking the current proposal even more. Thanks.
