Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Typed Properties

I have seen this sentiment expressed elsewhere. I want to personally
affirm that Nikita and Bob have been working hard on this for a long
time. This is not a last minute change being rushed. They have been
quite thorough and have discovered and fixed many edge cases that I
suspect other authors would not have found or would have ignored. Yes,
it is being voted on in the narrow gap between first alphas and
feature freeze but that does not mean it is rushed.
