An > initial proposal was done here (pierre, lukas) Can we first decide whether this effort is worth anything (as in whether we reimplement the whole extension)? > 6) namespaces for internal classes The general idea so far was that the user should namespace their names and PHP uses the global name space. Just as in any other language. However that does not mean that some ext could have namespaces. But given that until now we lived without we would make it much harder for users if now we would put all (or even any tiny bit of) internal functionality inside namesoace. Just because everything has to be done twice then from the user perspective. So this is contraproductive. It would also take away the freedom to ignore namespaces. > 7) deprecate/remove ticks Deprecate, as this is a minor version and not a major version. If we remove them which personally I'd love to do, then we should drop tons of other deprecated stuff as well and get rid of the stupid no removing unless major version change rule. > 8) Algorithm Optimizations - string search Anythign that makes PHP faster should always be welcome. Unless: - comes with API additions -> RM decision - internal API change -> next minor version - extenal API change -> next major verision Best regards, Marcus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
