With the first alpha of 8.0 due in three months, I think it's time to start the process of finding and electing release managers for the next release of PHP. We are looking for two developers to take on this role. Whomsoever is elected will be guided and helped by the previous RMs and the excellent documentation in php-src:README.RELEASE_PROCESS. Candidates should have a reasonable knowledge of internals (without necessarily being a C guru), be confident about merging pull requests without breaking backward compatibility, doing triage for bugs, liaising with previous release managers, and generally getting the branch in good shape, as these are among the activities you will be undertaking as release manager. Please put your name forward here if you wish to be considered a candidate. An initial TODO page has been added to the wiki and contains provisional dates for GA and pre-releases: https://wiki.php.net/todo/php80 cheers, Derick -- PHP 7.4 Release Manager Host of PHP Internals News: https://phpinternals.news Like Xdebug?
