Since the rfc for 5.7 failed the voting I've personally assumed that we
don't want to support the 5.x series after the normal lifecycle for 5.6:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/php57

Most of my arguments for 5.7 was the same as Zeev and orhers listed here in
this thread but the majority shared the opinion that the support left for
5.6 is sufficient and we shouldn't prolong the support for 5.x as it will
just delay the adoption for 7.0
