Comment:

 Well, at this point, it's turning out to be a major nuisance. Might as
 well give fixing it a try. I should be happy I can afford some developer
 time which a major project (like Wordpress) couldn't.


 dd32 - I disagree. When I'm running code, I expect to get a list of
 potential issues with it, regardless who wrote it. E_DEPRECATED can be a
 cause of security issues (consider mysql_'s deprecation in the future),
 and E_STRICT can be cause for unknown vectors, because the PHP people tend
 to test the odd cases less.

 Logging is an important aspect, and I expect people to do it properly (at
 least those that really care about their system). In cases where logging
 turns out to be excessively verbose, I've implemented two systems to tone
 it down (what of which is pretty smart).

 With that, I think we can close this for now, until further notice.
