I think that being consistent is important and we have almost missed the chance to be so. I am starting to see that people are already using PHP 5 to develop production applications (which are due later this year). In order to minimize the damage caused by changing to studlyCaps, I suggest we make the changes now and roll an RC2 within a week. At least this way, people who are starting to pick-up PHP 5 due to its RC status will not have to change their scripts. I saw the SQLite patch and I see that a couple of method names have been changed beyond studlyCaps (order was changed), e.g. unbuffered_query -> queryUnbuffered(). The old MySQL extension uses the former so maybe we should stay consistent? Andi
