Until there is in fact, a next major version, what its name will be is surely moot, and until there is a GA release (or at the earliest alphas / beta test releases), there should be no such thing as a versioned / numbered release. Assuming the above, there is no need to discuss / vote on this now, but in 1-3 years or so (depending on who you listen to ;)), and in that time frame, shouldn't it simply remain as PHP.next (or some random codename / whatever). There's a good chance that views will change in that time anyway and new / joining devs may wish to have their say, so surely don't version a non-version, and leave it till there's something to be officially released.
