Re: Censorship in php

If the discussion was on the webmaster list then fine. But currently the website is promoting a new venue for discussion not hosted by php.net as far as I can tell with no linkage back to the project at all? It requires a separate login and it's the control and administration of this which I am questioning. Like composer and php-fig it seems that the core project is happy to let others take control of what I consider fundamental development decisions and then drive developments within the project to better match that view of forward development.
I will ask once again that PHP5.6 is shelved in favour of PHP6 to allow those of us who were happy with the stability that PHP used to provide to stabilise it once again with a version that we at least stand a chance of catching up with.
Since the general feeling here seems to be that if someone is willing to promote their own pet project then so be it, perhaps now is the time to take advantage of DVCS and start promoting a 'simple PHP' project based on a time before 'e_strict' ... I still have sites that need reworking before they can be used on more modern PHP installations safely, so the suggestion that I should be monitoring even more lists does not go down well!
