All, I have decided to close the vote on my Scalar type declarations RFC.

When I added the wording "or the date that voting closes on a competing RFC." to the voting timeline of the RFC, it was in the understanding that it was a good faith effort on the part of Zeev and the competing RFC for the best of the project. I was advised against doing so by several people. I still chose to show the good faith and attempt to work with people rather than against them. However, it has become exceedingly clear to me that this good faith has not been reciprocated. The understanding that we had when both proposals opened has now been violated. Rules have been broken and politics are ensuing in an attempt to sabotage this proposal. Rather than working together, "unofficial polls", backdoor politics and poor behavior have created yet more toxicity. For this reason, I consider the good-faith clause violated. Rather than drag this vote on end, and rather than be accused of closing "when convenient", I am choosing to move up the ending day to put an end to the drama. Therefore, I am closing votes on this RFC effective tomorrow, March 16th. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/scalar_type_hints_v5#vote Thank you Anthony -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
