Hello Nick, Welcome to the list. I joined the list awhile back then unsubscribed for no apparent reason. This list was very active years ago. I came back about a few months ago just as a watcher. I didn't really post or participate at all. I guess, there are a lot of watchers "only" people here. They receive digest e-mails; they just don't participate in any way. Then, there are those who lost their jobs due to the recession and so they dropped off the list as well. There are a lot of developers unemployed. I would imagine that other developers didn't keep up with the changes. PHP has come a long way as far as Object Oriented Programming is concerned. There have been many discussions about Design Patterns and extending existing classes. So a lot has changed in the last 5 years. I do believe that the list will pick up again. Welcome back, Ravi.
