I think end-user / newbie votes should be rather considered than dev's since they are ones who will be learning and getting used to this syntax. So why don't place a pool on some php developer website? That would be more correct to php real users. r

I don't think so. Dev's have an understanding of php as a whole that most people haven't, so they are more clever in judging new features. Moreover, i agree with Steph:
