https://wiki.php.net/rfc still says no RFCs are in voting.

Just to clarify something that came up:

Voting "no" on the first poll means that we are not going to define a
rule for class naming. Hence, voting "no" on the first poll and yes on
anything in the second has no effect!

This is how all multi-polls so far worked and this one is no exception.

Hmm, one might dislike having the coding standards amended in this
regard, but still may have a preference on how it would be changed, if
the change will be accepted.

Haven't thought about it this way, that actually makes sense.

What I want to avoid is that anybody thinks that the second poll has any
meaning if the first one is a "no". In that case the second one is
"nothing". That is basically the point. A vote like you said definitely
makes sense, yes.

That's how I always interpreted our voting process for multi polls like this one

As it's already July 18, I've closed the vote. The RFC has been accepted
(17:9) and the option "PascalCase except Acronyms" received more votes
(15:11).
