You all are speaking about the same... But there is a good point you all are missing... It has non sense to read a book about php6... but what about to sell a php6 book? Hey! we are up to today! All the php5 book's are outdated. That's probably what editors thought when they decide to edit that book. Anyway... I'll like to read a book of how php6 was born, what was the challenges, and how the community have worked to get this product in the market. There must be someone that has anything to say about this? That'll be a very interesant book to read On Thu, Aug 6, 2009 at 4:33 PM, Eddie Drapkin <oorza2k5@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, Aug 6, 2009 at 3:22 PM, Ashley Sheridan<ash@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > On Thu, 2009-08-06 at 20:16 +0100, Tony Marston wrote: > >> Don't be so pedantic.
