Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [VOTE] Fibers
From: Danack@basereality.com (Dan Ackroyd)

Hi internals,

Well, technically this is addressed more to people who read internals.

Please don't contact people off list putting pressure on them to vote
in a particular way.

It _really_ is not appreciated, no matter how well intentioned the
sender thinks it is.

I maintain some notes on RFC etiquette here:
https://github.com/Danack/RfcCodex/blob/master/rfc_etiquette.md#dont-pressure-people-by-private-communication-to-vote
(which not even is going to fully agree with), but getting unsolicited
pressure to vote in a particular way makes people uncomfortable, and
less likely to take part in the project in the future.

cheers
Dan

= Don't pressure people by private communication to vote

Even with the best intentions, unsolicited off-list communications
putting pressure on people to vote a particular way are rude. At best
they don't have any effect, but most of the time they make the
recipient uncomfortable.

If you want to influence how people are going to vote, these things
are appropriate:

* Sending an email to internals saying that you would like to see this pass.
* Posting on Reddit /r/php or other platform where discussions take
place, and then posting a link to internals, saying "these are my
thoughts".
* Asking in a public communication channel asking someone in a neutral
way 'are you going to vote?'.

Private communications trying to change people's minds are a burden
that make people receiving them feel bad, even if they are intentioned
to help the project.
