async/await is the single greatest addition to modern application development in the last 20 years. Every language needs these features. Microsoft completely solved the core problems surrounding multithreaded programming with the concepts behind these two keywords. +1 to reserving these keywords even though PHP isn't currently a multithreaded language. IMO, PHP CLI is just as viable as PHP SAPI. And PHP CLI is where multithreaded functionality makes a lot more sense. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President I've got great, time saving software that you will find useful. http://cubiclesoft.com/
