To throw another viewpoint into the mix. If we require composer, we require users to learn to use composer. Some like myself have never used it, and while it’s a skill I should probably learn that will save me considerable time, it may be that not all will find being forced to learn a new piece of software so great.
Of course I could be missing something here.
That is indeed a valid argument. Given we migrated our community from subversion to git, I am confident enough that using composer will be very easy to the community. An almost complete tutorial is a few paragraph long, there are ton of resources around and more and more upstream are migrating to composer :-)
So yeah composer adds one more brick, but that solve so many issues that I think it is worth the tiny time investment.
mkdir project; cd project composer require foo/bar require 'vendor/autoload.php';
Done :-]
