One of the most frequent questions that I get asked is “How can I become a better developer?” I think that it’s a very good question to ask that deserves a good response. But how can you respond to something like that? Becoming a better developer depends so heavily on past experience (where to grow), interests and rationale (why do you want to grow), that it’s really hard to answer without a fair bit of discussion. This post reflects my experiences from both my own growth and the growth that I’ve seen in others.

On PSR-0 Being Included In PHP's Core
Note: The voting phase has begun on php.net. If you have an svn account somewhere on php.net, vote and share your opinion: wiki.php.net SPLClassLoader Vote
Recently there has been a rather heated and intense discussion on whether the PSR-0 autoloader "standard" should be included as part of the PHP core (in ext/spl to be exact). I've tried to stay out of the discussion and have successfully done so. Until today. I feel that there's something that's been missing to the discussion. So rather then posting this to the internals list, I feel it's better served by a blog post on the subject. So here's my take on it.
TL;DR: I don't think it should be included in the core.
