Subject: HEADS UP: Upcoming Feature Freeze for PHP 5.5.0
From: dsp@php.net (David Soria Parra)

Hi Internals,

as you might have read in the 5.5.0alpha4 announcments, we are moving
forward with 5.5.0. We are already a bit late on the schedule and
we want to begin the beta cycle in 14 days and concentrate on QA
for the 5.5.0 release from now on.

This includes a feature freeze. No new features should be comitted to
the repository once we tagged the first beta on Feb 7. All outstanding
features will have to wait for 5.6.0 in a year unless there is a
really good reason for an exception.

  Feature Freeze is on Feb 7, 2013.

Regards,
   Julien and David
