Subject: RE: [PHP-DEV] [RFC][VOTE] Removal of dead or not yet PHP7 ported SAPIs and extensions
From: thetaphi@php.net ("Uwe Schindler")

Hi,

I gave my votes (where I can talk about). I am still maintaining the =
NSAPI SAPI. It does not meant that its dead if no commits were made. =
NSAPI upstream API just did not change since years, so why change a =
running system?

The current version of this SAPI (5.6) runs perfectly with MediaWiki and =
several CMS systems on latest Oracle iPlanet server in production. The =
information about NSAPI you gave ("The developers of iPlanet @Oracle =
wrote back, that they're not intended to support this SAPI starting from =
PHP7 onwards.") is not applicable, because people from Sun/Oracle never =
provided any support or this extension - you should have asked the =
maintainer (me). Oracle just recommends fcgi, because it might be more =
stable if you use non-threadsafe extensions, but otherwise the server is =
perfectly stable and very fast. Oracle employees only helped with one =
patch, otherwise it was mostly (re-)written by me. In addition, the =
server works perfectly fine on Ubuntu 14.04, so it will also run on =
Debian. It can be downloaded with Oracle OTN license, header files are =
included. You can compile PHP 5.6 with it as documented: =
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/webtier/downloads/iplanet-webserve=
r-525365.html

If there are changes needed in the SAPI for PHP 7, I can take care, I =
just have not looked into it. It should not be a problem for me to =
update it, unless significant changes in the PHP API occurred since my =
last commit (yes, I am a bit inactive, but still following the =
development).

Uwe
