[snip] Please take a look at this post <http://blogs.phparch.com/mt/?p=125> and this comment by Chris Shiflett <http://blogs.phparch.com/mt/?p=125#comment-7459>. They aren't saying this acronym has to change, but it could be better... So, why don't we change it? That's what I mean. In the end, as I already said, PHP is much more than a Hypertext Preprocessor. [/snip] I know these guys and appreciate their viewpoint, but if you change the name you may do more harm than good. Let's call it "Foo". When it was changed to Pre-Hypertext Preprocessor it was a kludge from Personal Home Page (which sounds like a hobbiests version of something other than a language). Any change will have to have back reference to PHP. The books on the shelf and the books being authored, how do you handle that? In the end it is not worth worrying about. If someone asks you what PHP stands for tell them it stands for the best darned programming language you ever saw. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
