This was decided at the infamous paris PHP6 meeting and is still listed on the php todo list on my wiki. http://oss.backendmedia.com/PhP60
Your wiki (and your presentation) are the only two sources of this make-ctype-deprecated rumour I could ever find. The pages you link to from your wiki (including the Paris meeting minutes) do not mention ctype at all. So I'd still like to see a "core developer X states at [Y] that ctype will be deprecated".

You are right, it was not in Paris. I ran a query on the wiki history and found it was added by Marcus Boerger in May 2006: http://oss.backendmedia.com/index.php?area=PHPTODO&page=PhP60&view=diff&to=2006-05-02+22%3A47%3A36&from=2006-05-02+14%3A10%3A53 Maybe the decision making process can be found inside the Zend weeklies or the internals mailinglist around that time frame. regards, Lukas
