I'm not a big fan of bundling a fixed set of bugs or bugfix releases of loosely related libs with an app (rubygem style) and having them twice or more times on a given system. Composer still has its place. I don't see much to do here for php core. --=20 Ralf Lang Linux Consultant / Developer Tel.: +49-170-6381563 Mail: lang@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstra=C3=9Fe 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 ------enig2MWIUXBHMOUUBSGGUNSWR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlHkNG4ACgkQCs1dsHJ/X7CfhACg2oe2EE69Eay7X2t6fZYzrYAC 9KkAn10ARQpqmjZSQ26maANnGEL/HEoz =jiyY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------enig2MWIUXBHMOUUBSGGUNSWR--
