Alexey Borzov (http://pear.php.net/user/avb) has edited the proposal for RFC::Requiring E_STRICT Compatibility for New PEAR Packages. Change comment: - Document PHP 5.1.4 as the version to require compatibility with - Add the deadline for PHP4 packages as 3 months after RFC acceptance
We just discussed january 2007, why put 3 months? We should only define january 2007.
We didn't actually discuss it, "you suggested" would be a more accurate description. I don't like January for what seems as obvious reason: there will be holidays and you risk getting a flood of last-minute proposals when people who are expected to review and vote will be busy drinking, will be away for holidays and will generally not care about said proposals. This proposal will not be called for votes until August, then the voting phase, then 3 months. Thus the deadline will be set sometime around the middle of November. If you insist on setting a fixed date instead of "Acceptance + 3 months" then I suggest December 1st, 2006.
