All I'm asking is that you justify that statement. Static classes are possible
in php, and are currently the only way we have of curtailing namespace impact
right now.
There's been a lot of discussion recently on making php work better for
enterprise needs; one of the things that would help this is to have the
infrastructure that we use - things like PEAR classes - be very clean in their
use of the global namespace.
