Hi Bob,

Hey,
Thanks for all your feedback in the discussion thread!
So, before I start the vote, just two quick notes:
I've added two notes about the statement syntax and the single variable use.
Though a few people complained, I'm not switching to the ==> operator, as I
noticed many people expected typehints to work (they don't due to parser
limitations) when they compared to Hack's short Closures. It also allows us to
differ syntax-wise [e.g. for typehints] from Hack without causing any confusion
later. Which should be the smartest choice: Avoid conflicts. (If anyone strongly
feels against that, he may vote no, but I would like to not bikeshed that in this
Vote thread, but leave it free for eventual actual issues.)
Now, the link to the RFC about Short Closures:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/short_closures
or straight ahead to the vote:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/short_closures#vote
I am unhappy with the ~> syntax choice. As I've mentioned before, it's
hard to type for many people, it looks too much like ->, and it's
unnecessarily different from Hack's ==>, of which this RFC would
otherwise be proposing a strict subset.
So, I am voting against.
Thanks.
