> And yet you're a core contributor, are you not?

A contributor to the core, certainly. I can't say if I'm a “core” contributor.

> Well... what are your suggestions? What would you do?

I can't say with certainty what I will do, but I can point to what I've done. I've tried to fix some things which have bugged me.

> What's the future of the language?

I have no idea. There's not really a roadmap.

> Should people bail or not?

If they want to. If they'd rather use something other than PHP, and they have the choice to, then they're free to do so.

Still... if you were building a web application today, would you consider using PHP, a "flawed language"?

I have. I write some things in PHP, because I'm familiar with it.
