Maybe we should have a longer timeframe and deprecate in 8.0 and change precedence in 9.0, similar to how it might be done with ?: changing to non-assoc in 8.0 and maybe right-assoc in 9.0 or 10.0? Should we have a secondary vote for that? Regards, Niklas -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
