I still don't see anyone going straight to production with 7.0.0 unless they=
 have been extensively testing the RCs. And if they have been extensively te=
sting the RCs then any issues in them must not be impacting them. 7.0.0 is t=
he wake up call for all the people who haven't been testing the RCs and as s=
uch it will generate more issues, regardless of how long we wait. That's why=
 I still wouldn't suggest anyone go straight to production with 7.0.0 even i=
f we delay another full year. This has nothing to do with being cavalier nor=
 having a perspective failure about anything, it has to do with being realis=
tic and pragmatic about how things work based on years of experience doing t=
his.

Every single release in the history of PHP has been a compromise. We have RC=
s until the set of fixes from one RC to the next is free of major issues. Th=
ere will always be more issues, so we have to make a release decision at som=
e point.
