Hi Internals,

I'm pleased to announce that the Locale-independent float to string cast
RFC has been accepted with 41 votes in favour, and 1 vote against.
According to the result of the secondary vote, the
debug_locale_sensitive_float_casts ini setting won't be introduced.

Cheers:
Máté

Thank you Mate, this will be a very welcome change, that will naturally fix
bugs such as this one <https://github.com/brick/math/pull/20>, and probably
others going unnoticed.
