So closure on the other gets pushed back further? From a practical point of view ... Some sort of Type Hinting is coming in, so for those of us who can't be bothered to have to deal with it, we just ignore it and ensure that any third party library is maintained without it having the complications created. If people want to fork those libraries then fair enough, but we will simply have to ensure that every project is clear on just what rules it is working to and manage a complete split in the code base ... end of story. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
