If you could explain how the ban is relevant, I would agree. I have
not seen such an explanation so far, only claims that "we've had this
conversation before". I believe we haven't had this conversation
before, only one that looks superficially similar. (If there has been
this conversation before, I apologize, but I could not find it).
I suppose we'd better look for alternate solutions. The simplest might
be hosting the 3rdparty code in Google code or similar, and using
svn:external. If people don't like that, the easiest thing is probably
moving the benchmarks project to a different repository. However, I
would prefer for it to be a first-class member of the PHP ecosystem,
and I don't think that will happen if it is hosted elsewhere.
Thanks,
Paul
