We agree on one thing, It is a critical part. That's why I took so much time to explain how it could work and why it is important to do it this way. You told me that you were working on php6 in the last two or three years. Why did you not work on that earlier? > You told me that you made some progress but also ran into > problems.

Nice, there is progress. It was "never", now it is "most of the times". Will it be "always" tomorrow? > If you lost interest/ > time/motivation to do this, you should have said this outright > instead of stringing us along for weeks If you played ping-pong with the possible volunteers while trying to get it sooner than later, you are the only one to blame, face the truth. > while you made miscellaneous > patches to GD and zip extensions. And for many other projects, what I do or not during my work day or in my free time is not your problem. What does that have to do with this issue? Nothing. However, to clarify this question, most if not all patches I applied to the PHP tree in the last months are security fixes or critical bug fixes.You have to understand that such tasks have a higher priority than PHP 6. That being said, you are not in the position to tell me what I have to do in my free time, in PHP or not, understand that. > At the end, all I was asking for > was the code you had written so far, and even that you were not > willing to share. So yes, I do consider you flaky and unreliable, and > that is my (and some of the others' by the way) personal opinion, but > don't tell me that this does not reflect the facts. I tell you that it does not reflect the fact and your lack of objectivity is not funny anymore.Your (selective) memory has holes and I can't accept such terms to describe what I do for PHP. But you completely "forgot" to mention that I gave the hand to Sara. After a couple of weeks and yet another discussions on IRC, I realized that I was again in charge. Do you really think that you can treat me like the last wheel of the car and then come back to beg me? You must be kidding! Now about what you (or any other) think about me, I cannot care less but I do not accept personal attacks, I never did. It is simply unacceptable and respectless. I do my best for PHP and in my free time. And for what I hear, a lot of people appreciate my work, many more than you and the 2-3 other PHP jet setters having troubles with me for all possible reasons. I provide fixes, new features and improvements in time and every time it was asked and only in my free time. Consider to be slightly more respectful and I may consider to work more for php6. But for now and given the current mess, PHP6 is not my priority. You want something from me? for a given date? Pay me or be patient. But Is the PHP development list the right place to discuss our personal feelings? I don't think so. Short version: this discussion is ridiculous. You want something done before a given date? you have ways to get it, but you cannot push a developer (even me) like that, especially not when it is a volunteer. If you have something constructive to say, I will read it carefully and try to help you. If not, feel free to continue this senseless discussion, but I have better things to do than reading such stupidities. --Pierre
