Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] <?xml tags (was PDM Meeting Notes)
From: bgrupe@gmail.com (Bastian Grupe)

What concerns me most is that <?php= does not work, regardless if short 
tags will be disabled or not in php6. I currently use <%= to counter 
this, but I am most certainly *not* happy with it.

So a clean <?php= solution would be ideal, so I wouldn't have to care 
about xml/xsl files parsed and neither about my templates growing too 
large because of php overhead.
