Hi Mike,

In regards to naming: 'static' wasn't my first choice either. In fact I
was originally using 'this::' due to me misreading the notes from the
PDM.

Does 'this' work ok?  I like that one.  this:: and $this would both be late binding one for the class the other for the instance.  It makes a lot of sense to me.  I think it explains why self isn't late binding, too.  very nice.

this::method()
this::$property
this::constant
get_this_class()

(I doubt very strongly that anyone 'relies' on  early
binding for static functions...I could be wrong though.)

But they do for static properties.  Changing the meaning of self::$property would probably break some stuff.

Best Regards,

Jeff
