This is your early, advance warning that RM selection for the PHP 8.1
branch will be coming up in April.  Please start thinking about whether or
not you would like to put your hat in the ring. Feel free to volunteer now,
or any time over the coming weeks.  Additional announcements will be
forthcoming as we approach the selection date.  On April 12th
(provisional), Gabriel or I will announce the list of candidates and, if
more than two candidates have volunteered, open a vote.

A description of our release process can be found at
https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/master/docs/release-process.md and
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/releaseprocess

Notably, at least one of the volunteers must be a "veteran" release manager
meaning they have participated in at least one release of PHP in the past.
The other may be an additional veteran, or more ideally, someone new to the
RM role (in order to increase our supply of veteran RMs).  Regardless of
who is participating, you'll have access to all active release managers to
help get you up and running.

Let's all make PHP awesome!
-Sara Golemon and Gabriel Caruso, your PHP 8.0 Release Managers
