Going by Ilia's comments about RFC's on IRC, I guess someone else should take on writing an RFC, summarizing the discussion, linking important ml posts and moving forward with a vote, keeping in account the various relevant options/variations suggested. This RFC here can serve as a starting point: http://wiki.php.net/rfc/typehint Remember anyone can request a wiki account and do this. regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith mls@pooteeweet.org
