From: bdavies@stickyeyes.com ("Ben Davies") Ben Davies | Lead Developer | Stickyeyes -----Original Message----- From: Steph Fox [mailto:steph@php.net] Sent: 06 November 2008 11:59 To: Ben Davies; 'Dan'; 'troels knak-nielsen' Cc: 'Larry Garfield'; internals@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Call it: allow reserved words in a class or not? This namespaces issues highlights the very fundamental issues with PHP, and glib, childish responses like yours only serve to score points. === The 'very fundamental issue' here is that you're expecting namespaces to allow things that are not legal in non-namespaced PHP code. The entire thrust of the internals discussion preceding this has been that preserving similar resolution rules in namespaced PHP code to those that already exist, will avoid potential confusion. And don't tell me to 'grow up' or I'll set my grandchildren on you ;) - Steph
