One final question..
should I assume while converting code "unicode.semantics" is on or off?
If its on I would be making sure everything is properly casted to binary
strings where this is needed, if it's off the focus would be on making
sure the application runs on both PHP5 and PHP6..
What makes the most sense here? I would personally say I would try it
assuming its off, as this is the most likely for the development teams
to target for ..

It'd probably be a good idea to have a Wiki where we can document issues
that/common use-cases which are encountered.
Maybe we should have a Wiki on one of the php.net servers for such
purposes?

What I really think we need to do for this release, which
we haven't
been good at doing in the past, is build a PHP Compatibility Team
which tries to port many applications to PHP 6 and finds
the issues in
doing this port (both with unicode_semantics=on/off). We can then
learn from this experience and have good documentation on how to
upgrade to both modes and in some cases, like we have done
in the past
2-3 weeks, tweak PHP 6 to not break backwards compatibility. It is
possible in many cases.
I'd volunteer for this. Does it help you guys to get started
with this today, or should I be waiting till there's more
agreement on some of this stuff..
