Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Option to enable echo tags when short tags are turned
 off
From: smalyshev@sugarcrm.com (Stas Malyshev)

Hi!

> (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50662). I've written a patch and two

I don't think we really need more options - I think we should just have 
<?= always work. There's no valid XML file out there that contains <?= 
and only people that use it are PHP programmes that don't care for XML 
validity. Why not just make it work finally?
Yes, I know that was debated 100 times. But I still think disabling <?= 
makes no sense, so here it goes.
