Some nit picks about the RFC itself: - A syntax break should require two-thirds vote, no matter how many users it impacts. It's one of the few defined parts of our RFC process[1]: "For these reasons, a feature affecting the language itself (new syntax for example) will be considered as 'accepted' if it wins a 2/3 of the votes." - Syntax breaks generally don't belong in minor versions. From the Release Process RFC[2]: "Backward compatibility must be respected with the same major releases, for example from 5.2 to 5.6." This RFC removes something that is currently possible in PHP 5, thus violating our release process. I know we've broken this rule in 5.X already; that doesn't mean we should do it again. - As already mentioned by, the length of the minimum discussion time necessary for an RFC that touches the language is two weeks[3]; this RFC was announced on August 7th, meaning it has only been one week.
