I don't know why one wouldn't embrace and promote the good work they are doing. Yes Stewart, I do think it makes a lot of sense for FIG to officially represent a part of the PHP community as it consists of the project leads of the major PHP projects that we have (Symfony, Zend, Drupal, phpBB ..etc). The work we are doing is strengthening the consistency on the code produced on these projects. Can the PHP Group (or internals) please give a decision to me on this. Many thanks, Paul Dragoonis. > > Cheers, > Stew
