[PHP-DEV] release frequency?

[Stas Malyshev]

Hi!

I see that we do not have a lot of changes in 5.4 since last release. So
I wonder if it may make sense to reduce release frequency now that we
got less bugfixes coming in, say from monthly to 1.5 or 2 months between
release. What do you think?

Just to be clear, I have no problem (excepting unforeseen circumstances,
of course) still doing monthly, just not sure it's worth it if we'd have
less than 10 bugfixes per release...

Re: [PHP-DEV] CURL file posting

[Stas Malyshev]

Hi!

I'm thinking maybe the best solution is to have a new class - say,
CurlFile - and do this:

$file = new CurlFile(myface.png, image/png);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array(foo = bar, picture =
$file);

This would allow us to do two things:
1. Protect ourselves from injection since you can not inject objects
(there's still a matter of serialized data, but this can be handled by
the class itself).
2. Support much more options in the file - e.g., right now it does not
support streams, but libcurl has CURLFORM_STREAM - maybe we could use
it, or maybe just read in the stream data and use it as CURLFORM_BUFFER.
Of course, that would not work for big files, but here we are able to
use much more options than with old @-based API.

Any holes in this idea? If not, I'll try to make an RFC for it.
