Hi all,
Per my message from a couple of weeks ago
<https://externals.io/message/131332#131945> I have opened the vote for
Function Autoloading (mark 5):
- <https://wiki.php.net/rfc/function-autoloading-five-oh>
The vote runs for two weeks and will close automatically at 14:45 UTC on Thu 13
Aug 2026.
N.b.: Voters concerned about shadowed global functions should note that such cases,
while real in principle, are extremely rare in practice; those very few cases can be
mitigated easily. Cf.
<https://wiki.php.net/rfc/function-autoloading-five-oh#how_common_is_the_shadow-global_case>.
I think this is the best autoloading proposal up to date.
Most likely I would have voted yes if the target was 8.7, leaving us
plenty of time to intervene in case of issues.
Perhaps I'm biased as RM, but last minute RFCs are making me nervous, I
hope you understand.
Cheers
