I dislike the lobbying, and think some of the allgeged abusive back-channel communications are wildly out of order, but I would be against this change.
There have been a couple of instances in the past few weeks where someone has voted in a particular way. When asked why they voted like that, they've explained themselves which has lead to other people realising the actual implications of an RFC, and for those people to either vote no, or switch their vote from yes to no. Aka allowing people to see votes has prevented some RFCs being approved that would have otherwise been approved. I think having clearer rules about what lobbying is permitted, and introducing some rules on who can vote on what would be a better way of limiting the effect of lobbying. cheers Dan -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
