Hi Benjamin,=0A=
=0A=
Thank you again for putting in the effort to update the RFC and=0A=
address most of the arguments brought up on list.=0A=
=0A=
I would encourage everyone to read through the complete RFC before=0A=
voting, particularly the sections on BC breaks and forward=0A=
compatibility pros/cons. Top link:=0A=
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/shorter_attribute_syntax_change=0A=
=0A=
The @{} syntax hasn't had much discussion yet. While I think it is=0A=
better than @[] and #[] since it doesn't break BC, it still shares=0A=
the problem of looking like a standalone block, when really=0A=
attributes are part of a class/function/property/etc. declaration.=0A=
=0A=
Now that voters have the complete information, it's up to them to=0A=
make a final decision. I look forward to putting this issue behind us!=0A=
=0A=
Best regards,  =0A=
Theodore=
