[Phplib-users] Sessions where are we going??

[Matt W. <li...@ye...>]

This is NOT meant to sound ungrateful or be an attempt to undermine any of 
the good work that all the people who contribute to phplib have dopne and 
still do so please don't flame me for it it's just my opinion and observation.

As we are now well into PHP 4 would it not be better to put the full weight 
of php4 session capabilitiess into phplib?

Max has done a very good job of implementing custom sessions with the 
session4 class, but why are these still in the unstable tree and haven't been 
touched for months? 

Would it not be better for the future of phplib to embrace the tools that 
php4 has given us to work with sessions in our applications?

Are there plans to move forward with the lib to implement fully php4 sessions 
especially with register_globals off, given the security implications of 
having this on.

I don't really contribute to CVS but I am working through trying to get 
phplib going with php4.0.6 with php4 sessions and register_globals off, when 
I get somewhere where I feel I can move on it I will post to the list. Unless 
of course this has already been done, in which case I would really like to 
hear from you :)

I think the fact that the current distro still aims itself at php3 would be a 
major turn off to any new users/contributors.

just my 2p
