I don't think we should have a vote to deprecate something in the manual, that is not actually emitting an E_DEPRECATED in php-src. Just go ahead and change the manual, we got lots of similar things already in there. Another note to keep in mind; If these were to be moved to any other extension, we would have to use our own implementation, or a library which we can use, because if my memory strikes me right, then these functions are implemented from LibXML2, although we always enable ext/libxml, at least on Windows, this could be a minor issue if moved. I'm neutral on the renaming. -- regards, Kalle Sommer Nielsen kalle@php.net
