Actually this RFC is being even partly discussed in the parallel phpng
thread and on IRC :) These two RFCs definitely intersect and are probably
the most significant changes proposed for PHP next. As the voting rule
says the discussion "should be at least a week", IMHO lets keep it then
(not long till 13th anyway).

The vote option would be a simple yes/no choice to accept the RFC for the
next major PHP version, just added it.

For the SAPI RFC - it's probably not to be solved in such short term of a
couple of days (and that's why it was separated from the main one). As it
involves trying all the corresponding servers, mailing the authors and
waiting for their reaction. Now it also looks like this topic concerns
phpng as well. Thus it makes sense firstly to finish the essential change.
The task itself of the research and adjoining throw out is a routine.

Best

Anatol
