Some issues not yet in the wiki, which have been discussed on this list some time ago: 1. date extension with OO interface and classname "Date" (don't forget about the PEAR::Date fun ;-)) For the OO interface, AFAIR most people prefered something like: http://cvs.php.net/viewcvs.cgi/pecl/date/docs/examples/sample1.php?view=markup to something like: http://www.zend.com/zend/week/date-timezone.txt 2. late static binding (keyword "this"?) When using static classes and inheritance, you can't use parent methodes/members today But perhaps that's something for 6.0... Another idea for a future PHP version: pecl_http extension implements some really useful features: http://dev.iworks.at/ext-http/http-functions.html.gz Perhaps some day, when it's ready... it could implement the 5 functions from ext/http too, and replace that extension without any BC-issues... best regards Andreas
