I don't doubt any of your abilities, what I do doubt is that how we
can consider an outside project directly into the core. APC would
without a doubt be up to pair if there was more people willingly to
dwell into it (yes dwell as many people see it as an alien artifact
because it touches and modifies some "unusual" things that the average
extension developer don't).
A fresh injection of 'blood' may do wonders? Since there are other options to
APC which may be alternative candidates, on one hand it makes perfect sense that
such a knowledgeable clean sheet is at least considered especially since the
code is almost feature complete? But providing it as another external (PECL)
option initially makes more sense? If only to allow comparison with APC,
eaccelerator and the rest?
I'll get my head chewed off again, but can we no consider doing that as PHP6
given that 6.0.x could be a development stage. I would perhaps then strongly
lobby for 'only' having E_STRICT mode so things like 'static $this' go by the by
anyway? This would not rule out a 5.5 with just the current suit of extras
although personally I'd prefer a longer maintained 5.4 with just the extras
that dovetail well included.
