This rfc was specific to php7, and while you are right that with that we do
have an approved timelime for php7, but this doesn't say anything about 5.7
(and as far as I'm concerned, it was an intentional choice from Zeev not
just something he forgot to include).
Maybe it would be worthwile for you to repeat your arguments or simply link
them, as I do remember that you are supporting the idea of not having any
other release minor release until php7 is out of the door so the
development efforts are not fragmented (which as I mentioned in my previous
mail I feell it would be only a shift from 5.6.x to 5.7.0 and not
fragmanting the php7 development, but you seem to disagree).
