you did read the disclaimer at the top of the pdm notes?
anyways, an in person meeting of several php.net people does not =20
constitute a decision. decision are made on this list. ideally they =20
are based on an RFC that is then updated according to the discussions =20=

and decisions on this list. and even then decisions at times will be =20
reversed too. so it goes.

PS: I do however agree that in the future notes from meetings like =20
this should be given a bit more details, like the date, the people who =20=

attended and stuff like that.
