Banyard > PDO::ERRMODE_WARNING I am ok with deprecating this mode as I cannot imagine why would anyone use it. However, can I suggest that we deprecate the silent mode too? How useful is the silent mode in PDO? ext/filter deprecations As much as I hate this extension, I don't think deprecating these functions is the right choice. It's not unheard of for someone to use filter_input without the filter parameter to avoid getting the warning on missing value. See the top comment on https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.filter-input.php#115086 Maybe we should just unbundle that whole extension? docref_root Can this still be used for development environment in another language? I.e. point to the manual in localized version? Deprecate using values of type null and bool as array offsets I can see the value in getting rid of it, but this behavior can be useful too. For example $tally[isEnabled($name)]++;
