Subject: Preliminary Polling
From: krakjoe@php.net (Joe Watkins)

Morning internals,

I've got a sort of fuzzy idea to make provisions in the RFC process for
preliminary polling.

It seems there are several situations where a preliminary poll makes sense,
it would have made sense for the p++ discussion and saved us a week of
wasted time. It also makes sense when the RFC author is not sure whether
they want to invest time in an implementation, or even long drawn out
discussion.

They would be non-binding, of course, and allowable from the time of RFC
creation, with a limit of one preliminary poll per RFC.

Is this making sense to anyone else ?

Cheers
Joe
