Are we keeping the 5.2 names in 5.3 as well or is the proposal that 5.2 apps
get rewritten for 5.3?
I don't really see the need to make changes for 5.3 for the sake of satisfying
this particular naming convention.
For php 6, it can make sense given the other changes being required.

Hi!

i.e., from 5.3.
Would that work for everybody? How much effort is it to implement this?
If we make this exclusively, this would mean that 5.2 and 5.3/6 users
would have incompatible code. I don't think it's a good idea.
We may make Intl::Collator as alias for Collator in 5.3+, and that'd be
easy, but I'm not sure that'd what people here want.

Hi!
Following more than a year of planning and development, and the release
of version 1.0.0 on PECL, I have merged today the intl extension into
PHP core. The list of its current capabilities is here:
http://php.net/intl - please try it out and enjoy. Version compatible
with 5.2.x starting 5.2.4 is available from PECL, and for 5.3 is in the
CVS tree.
I would like to say big thanks to everybody who contributed to this
project, by helping to design it, write the code, test it or provided
feedback and bug reports. Thanks a lot!
With this, it is not by any means the end of the road for this project.
There's still much to be done. We need to integrate it much better with
PHP 6, improve support for other modules like DateTime, and support more
capabilities of ICU, like resources, calendars, IDN - and you probably
could think of more. And, of course, bugfixes :)
If you have any comments, wishes, feedback etc. please tell. And if you
encounter a bug or have specific feature request please go to
http://pecl.php.net/package/intl and go to "Package Bugs"->"Report new
bug".
