Not in the message I was replying to, hence my comments. Although
having re-scanned the thread, it was quoted further back by someone
else. Personally I find there is a vast difference in meaning between
"don't use short-tags" and "don't use short-tags for distributed
applications".

Agreed. Although, if they needed that construct, don't you think
they'd realise the implications rather quickly? (most likely at the
point at which everything goes tits up?! ;)
Cheers,
