Subject: What about static/self was: (Re: [PHP-DEV] Closures and $this)
From: mathieu.suen@easyflirt.com ("mathieu.suen")

Hi,

Also $this have been wildly discuss here, but the same discussion can be 
apply to static/self.

self might be simple to figure out how to bind within a closure.
It can be bind to the name of the class where the closure is define.

static is a more tricky one but it should be the same thing than $this.

Is there a RFC about it?
Thanks
