Hi!

I am proposing to move all the content away from qa.php.net and merge it=20
into php.net

These are the follogwing things currently on the side:

- Documentation on how to write tests=20
  (https://qa.php.net/write-test.php), and how to handle bug reports=20
  (https://qa.php.net/handling-bugs.php); which should be integrated in=20
  wherever we now have internals documentation =E2=80=94 please advise wher=
e=20
  that should go.

- Some goals of the QA team (https://qa.php.net/projects.php), which we=20
  can probably remove.

- The latest QA releases (https://qa.php.net/), with SHAs; this should=20
  be merged with https://www.php.net/downloads in some fashion. It would=20
  also mean that release managers won't have to update two git=20
  repositories.

- A whole lot of "make test" reports, last really used in 2017 for PHP=20
  7.1: https://qa.php.net/pftt.php =E2=80=94 none of the links to the actua=
l=20
  reports work any way. This also takes up nearly 70GB! of data. I=20
  recommend we just delete it all.

Opinions?

cheers,
Derick
