Since this is done traditionally by 'who-have-the-time-to-invest-being-this', I think its about time we think about who will be able to do this massive task for our first major release in over a decade. We currently have 2 idea pages on the wiki available[1][2], listing some ideas and thoughts that we should consider for the new release. There is also the old PHP6 TODO list with some items merged into the PHP5 branch over time, some might still be appealing to consider for PHP7[3]. The RFC section on the wiki[4] is also booming with ideas and some that have already made its way into PHP7. So all in all I think its time that we decide on a set of RMs to keep this together, I for one would stand up to that role with someone else as I have the time to dedicate towards this and the experience of how our process and development work.
