Well, I'll make my point clear - I want to know what to expect from Pike development in the future. I like it (the language), but I want some features implemented. Some I can do on my own, of course, but I want to know what to expect from the Pike team - are they willing to accept something that they (personally) don't need? Are they open-minded? Are they will try to convince me that I don't need "unsigned int" or just accept (for instance) my own version of this type for inclusion in future versions? And so on...
In the past, I heard something like "The PCRE is not good enough for Pike, that's why it will never be included into distribution", but now it seems to be a less strict. So - I just want to know, nothing more.
I hope it is clear (and fair) enough? :)
