I think everyone knows the RFC was a collaboration among a number of intelligent experienced people. What is relevant is that the collaboration itself was not accessible by many of us - including me with my 0 Karma ;). Nobody else got the benefit of your discussions, which inevitably means we needed to rehash everything, challenge your assumptions, question your approach, and above all else request actual proof of the RFCs worth.

I think Pádraic gets it exactly right here. The proposals in the RFC might in fact be perfect, but if it is "delivered and defended" by PEAR Group, instead of "arrived at together" with the community as part of the creation process, then of course we of PEAR Group should expect some level of honest and genuine concern from PEAR folk. -- Paul M.
