Re: Re: PHP Standards and Best Practices for PHP 5.3+ Frameworks and Libraries

reHi Hannes, It was my understanding (and someone else who was there, feel free to correct me) but yes, we discussed and voted. It was agreed that each framework represented got a single vote and Travis spoke for PEAR. So no, I do not believe the three decisions made should be re-opened for discussion. No, I am not kidding, there was ample discussion on each of these items. I'm sure if we missed something in the standards it will come to light and once it does, at that point, if all parties agree, we can re-open discussion on items voted on. I am only talking about the decisions, not the example code. If there is a typo in the example code, of course we can revise it. Actually, in reading the notes on the resolutions that passed, I think Brett did an excellent job. I'm happy to run them by a few other PHP developers to make sure that the descriptions are correct but the descriptions aren't what was voted on, the resolution were. We can always add text to make things clearer as long as the original resolution isn't changed. I apologize if I've jumped the gun, if your intent was to just clarify descriptions and sample code. It sounded like you wanted to re-open the discussions on items that had already been passed. =C= p.s. I forgot to Reply All so Hannes got 2 copies of this email and was nice enough to point out my error. :) On Wed, May 27, 2009 at 9:41 AM, Hannes Magnusson < hannes.magnusson@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, May 27, 2009 at 01:21, Cal Evans <cal@calevans.com> wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > While I disagree with Hannes about the SHOULD, aren't re-hashing a > > discussion?
