Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] [DISCUSSION] Locale-independent float to string cast
From: george.banyard@gmail.com ("G. P. B.")

Hello all,

We've updated the implementation [1] and RFC [2] to provide a
temporary INI setting which will emit a warning every time a locale-aware
float to string conversation would have been done in PHP 7.
It's current name debug_local_sensitive_float_casts is also up to
debate and will be voted on a secondary vote.

How long this INI setting should remain in PHP is also up to discussion.

One remaining question is if we should change the %e and %E formats
for the printf family of functions to be locale independent or not and/or if
we should expose the %H format which is similar to %G but with %E
being locale independent.

Moreover, we would like to open voting next week, so your input on this
is very much appreciated so that we can amend this before going to voting.

Best regards

George P. Banyard
