Hello,
my name is Mike Pretzlaw, I am a (senior) developer, (junior) project
manager and work with PHP for a decade now. About time to contribute to
the PHP-Core and give something back to it. Unfortunately the
registration
(https://wiki.php.net/rfc/engine_exceptions_for_php7?do=register) does
not seem to be send anywhere or lacks at response messages to the
submitter. Yet I hope my registration reached the mailing list ;)
My knowledge in PHP is great (as I can say) and thanks to my studying I
am familiar with C++, Java and other languages. But I rather like to
take things step by step than straddle into your development. For the
first step it shall be contribution to the RFC and topics in the mailing
list. By looking and learning from the patches in the RFC list I hope to
meet the whole architecture of PHP (as my second step). And at l(e)ast I
like to write RFCs too and contributes patches. Bugfixes, fasten up
algorithms and developing more in the core is a dream but not
impossible. But that last one is something I need to find out and hope
to be welcome in your team.
Please give me the opportunity to contribute to your language and the
chance to adapt more competences. It would meet one of my big wishes.
Cheers,
Mike Pretzlaw

I assume that the wiki account request hasn't been send. There was a
bug, so error messages didn't show up. It should be fixed now, so if
you still want a wiki account, try registering again. Note, though,
that a wiki account doesn't give you voting rights.

Note, there is http://php.net/get-involved.php where several ways to
contribute to the PHP project are pointed out.
