## #132159 — Alexander Kurilo — 2026-08-01T08:13:32+00:00

Dear Internals,

I'd like to request RFC karma for kamazee wiki account.

A prior RFC about the minimum versions 
(https://wiki.php.net/rfc/min_supported_versions_php_8_6) introduced few 
BC breaks that can be observed even with newer DBMS versions which was 
not mentioned in the RFC itself, and thus would like to propose another 
way to handle the reset -- optionally, without breaking any of the 
existing code. The author wasn't open to considering making the new flag 
optional, so I would like to discuss it more explicitly with a wider 
community.


Thanks,

Alex

Your request went to spam for me, which is why I didn't handle it sooner.

I've granted you RFC karma now. Though, note that the vote result was 
quite clear, and the time for another RFC discussion + vote has run out.

Regardless, I'm not an RM so I'll let somebody else decide on how to 
proceed here.
