We put together a roadmap for 7.0 with Kalle:
https://wiki.php.net/todo/php70
Then the idea was brought up that we should consider other candidates other
than him, and we got sidetracked but did not really decide anything.
I agree that it would be nice sorting it out ASAP, but having the first
alpha on may 15th isn't feasible anymore.
I've created a vote about the RMs, this isn't something we used to do in
the past for (s)electing the RMs, but seeing how we couldn't reach an
agreement on the first round I think it would help sorting this out fast:
https://wiki.php.net/todo/php70#vote

Not sure that this should be a one or two week long poll, let's see what
others think.
