[RFC] [VOTE] Add 4 new rounding modes to round() function

Hello internals!
I have just opened voting on the RFC to add 4 new rounding modes to
round()
function.

Voting will end November 30th, 00:00 GMT.

I'm sorry for previous message, but completely missed the title of the
message.

Kind regards,

I didn't pay attention to the discussion. Sorry.

I object to changing the intl code to add aliases. The intl extension
is a wrapper around ICU, and I don't think it's a wise choice to
modify it because you think "ROUND_TOWARD_ZERO" is better than
"ROUND_DOWN". I agree the name is better, but that's not really how
extension maintenance should work. I definitely don't think we should
then deprecate the ROUND_DOWN/ROUND_UP constants in ICU, given that
the extension itself hasn't deprecated them and is still maintained. I
am surprised nobody pointed this out before.

I don't have any objection to the rounding modes themselves.

Personally I am fine with adding aliases to ext/intl, it is not because the
extension is a wrapper that we can't enhance it to be somewhat consistent.
However, I do agree that deprecating the existing constants is a bad idea.
But the RFC vote, as far as I can understand, is not about deprecating it
in this release.

Best regards,

Gina P. Banyard
