Hi all,

Since my last reply I have updated the RFC:

   - RFC Text: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/data_encoding_api
   - Discussion Thread: https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/128069

The main changes are:

   - I added functions for base58 and base85 encoding;
   - For completeness, I introduced an error marker class (as per PHP
   policies
   <https://github.com/php/policies/blob/main/coding-standards-and-naming.rst#throwables>)
 and
   a specific exception to handle potential encoding errors;
   - I added examples to better explain the expected behaviours during
   string process;
   - I have updated the migration path from the current/legacy API to the
   newly proposed API;

Best regards,
Ignace
