I still stand by that we should only let active contributors to PHP vote, while I understand that not everyone votes and there are many projects within the PHP.net umbrella. I do understand that many from outside projects wants to contribute and not everyone is great at C or internals or similar, but it is us that maintain PHP and if everyone who have a wiki account votes on something they may not understand the implication of, then it us that sits with it for years to maintain. By doing that I think we wouldn't need to have a X%+1 for accepting an RFC, if there are a tie, then there is obviously a dispute among us core developers and it can be discussed. Kinda what we used to do with voting on the ML, just by tracking them on the wiki interface. -- regards, Kalle Sommer Nielsen kalle@php.net
