NYCPHP Meetup

[Federico Ulfo]

Short code, is cool
$name = (new DB)->get_row()["name"];

Short array is nice
[ "user" => [ "name" => "Neytiri", "color" => "blue", "language" => "Na-vi"
] ];

<?= is now always available regardless of the short_open_tag setting,
finally!

I just don't get the syntax of traits, why not a simpler syntax, class C
extends A, B?



Here is the complete ChangeLog:
