The quotation came from the summary minutes of the Paris Developer's Meeting(?PDM you referred to). I presume that the Marcus, referred to in conclusion 2. of the quotation, was Marcus Börger (SOMABO) who was going to prepare an implementation suggestion. I thought that I read in one of Sara Goleman's more recent summaries that late static binding was still on the agenda for PHP 6. Can't find it at the moment though.
Mike Lively in his August 24 2006 blog had the following note: Late Static Binding I haven't been able to touch this in what seems like ages and have (unfortunately) completely missed the boat for PHP 5.2. But I am hoping to take a look at the current patch, come up with some solid use cases and tests, and submit the whole package to PHP Internals for review.
