It has been longer while now, and distros like RHEL-7 have dropped the extension completely. We can't pretend anymore that ext/imap is a _core_ functionality of PHP that everyone writing webapps needs. It needs to be removed :) Ferenc, David; What exactly is the procedure for doing that, considering 5.6 has shipped its first alpha? Remove it from master only, or killing it from 5.6 OK? -Hannes
