Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Please let's not bitch about lazy users not learning C
 to implement THEIR missing feature. (Was Re: [PHP-DEV] 5.4 again)
From: guilhermeblanco@gmail.com ("guilhermeblanco@gmail.com")

Hi Richard,

Again what I commented on other thread and again you barely see what I
mentioned, the feature is ALREADY written in C and compatible with
latest PHP trunk.
I'm not bitching against do and don't dos... I'm bitching about
ignored feature that are not even discussed.

I agree with you, it's an Open Source project and any help from any
front is valuable.
But as I pointed out on other thread, only developers with php-src
karma had features evaluated.
If you think I'm wrong, please re-read the entire thread of
Annotations and then get back to me with a single message on thread
where actually had a discussion with some mature content instead of
personal feelings.

Regards,
