"Experimental" sockets ext? View as Markdown

It is actually very stable, though the vector based functions will most
likely become deprecated. I will have better documentation with examples
finished shortly. Worst case before PHP5 is release.

I am also planning on adding some new features before that time as well
Users should have no problem using it in a production environment. If
you guys are getting alot of questions about this extension and don't
have time or know the answer, feel free to forward them to me.

The sockets extension is still marked experimental, and users are
starting to ask more and more questions about wanting to use it but
are wondering about its status.

It's been a while since I looked at it, but is it still considered
experimental? Are there known instabilities or lacks which should be
taken care of before we remove the experimental designation? Or should
we just tell the users 'yup--use at your own risk'?

Thanks for any insight,

Torben
