Hi,

One patch for 5.3 and one for HEAD, where they're not synched with the
other.  5.3's math changes the other day missed one change to the php_*
function (snaps are failing).  And HEAD's Win Makefile still contains
references to flex.skl after the re2c change, which causes an error for me,
though its snaps are building, so maybe I'm the only one?

Could someone explain to me why he doesn't have karma?

Hi Hannes,

CVS HEAD wasn't updated yet with the Windows build system because I was 
waiting for re2c development to settle down first, given that there was no 
re2c binary available that PHP could be built with at all for several weeks.

But I agree with you, Matt should've been given access to everything from 
Day One, we all know he's brilliant :)

- Steph

He never asked.

Then we'd better ask for him.

Matt's been pushing patches all across the PHP source (if mostly at the Zend 
Engine) for ages. He comes and goes, but pretty much all of his patches were 
subsequently accepted. I don't recall off-hand which bits of the source he 
was given karma for a few weeks ago, but it's downright weird that it was 
ever limited.

Hi all,

Thanks guys and gals!  (Steph, you're funny. ;o))  Yeah, I didn't get any
karma after my account was approved a few weeks ago, though I told Marcus
I'd been making random changes "all across the PHP source," so would need
access to php-src and ZendEngine2...  But I didn't expect that to just be
given right away, so I didn't want to bug anyone (more) about it.

Luckily my first two simple commits worked without wiping out the entire
history of PHP or anything. :-O  BTW, if I had karma for Zend stuff, I guess
I could fix Bugs #44681 and #44830, assuming my proposed fixes are
acceptable (should I have marked them Verified?).  And speaking of bugs, I
wasn't sure if I should close #44767 as Bogus, for example.  Maybe I will in
a few days unless I'm told not to. :-)


Thanks again,
Matt

You already have Zend karma.

I was going by your CVSROOT/avail commit, and checking the file now, it
seems I only have access to Zend[Engine2]/tests.  I could try commiting
something (don't know if there's another way for me to "check"), but I
didn't expect that it would work.  Maybe you just changed the wrong
section...? :-)

Ahh, just before I sent this, I see you changed it.  Cool, thanks.


Thanks,
Matt
