Please keep this sort of content inside the relevant mailing list thread,
we don't need yet more places to go hunting for comments on RFCs.  I'm not
sure what the value is of a dedicated wiki page is (for context, I have
read Dan's thread suggesting the idea), other than to have a new soap box
to shout from for the most loud voices.  Key feedback to RFCs should at
minimum appear in the respective discussion thread on the list.  If it
does, then this page is redundant.  If it doesn't, then it should.

Thanks George.  I created a page with a counterargument to the deprecation
proposal here:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/counterargument/deprecate_php_short_tags and
linked it from the RFC.

If others have additional input to add there, please let me know.
