Hi people,
I hope this is not too much off topic but I saw today that Travis now
supports nightly builds as a possible PHP version, they documented it here:
http://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/php/#PHP-nightly-builds
I think it would be good to incitate all the frameworks and projects
using Travis CI to add nightly to their testing matrix so as to catch
bugs in the upcoming PHP 7 version by testing real code and also so as
to have as much real code as possible getting ready for PHP 7.
That would mean some kind of communication about it and basically being
proactive promoting it but I don't know if PHP.net has some kind of
experience with communicating to developers this way. Maybe at least
Tweeting about it from the official Twitter account.
Regards,
Pascal

It would also mean that PHP officially endorses travis.

I read Pascal's email as merely a suggestion to disseminate some
information, not an endorsement for what it's worth.

We use travis already for the core tests. So more coverage for apps and
framework is even better.
I do not understand nor care much about the endorsement point of view. It
is an amazing testing platform and anything we can add to our CI/QA is a
good thing.
