I guess you didn't see my reply when you asked this before. Here again
is the link to the instructions: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto
Can you tell us where you got the idea that there needed to be a
separate page? Maybe there is some text that we can make clearer.
Meanwhile, please cancel this vote. There is no rush.
If we get it right, this could be the most significant feature added to
PHP for 10 years or more. If we get it wrong, we might regret it for 20
years.
On Monday, you replied to a message from Bart Vanhoutte, saying:
Hello Bart.
I am ready to agree with every word.
Participation from a working group, framework representatives, and the
ability to adapt libraries in advance would remove the concerns that
are currently causing fear. This is probably the only effective
process for developing and introducing such a feature.
Then two days later, you decided that no more discussion was necessary,
and opened a vote.
This feels like a complete contradiction.
Let's find a way to get that working group set up, and get people from
other projects involved.
I am extremely grateful and frankly amazed for all the work you've put
into this. Please don't throw that away by ending up with a "No" vote
over small details.
