Happy new year everyone!

I haven't seen this mentioned here on the list, and figured I'd ask, as it makes some people's lives a bit easier to know this... :)

What's the schedule/plan for the next point releases for PHP? The last ones were four weeks ago, but there haven't been the usual RC tags for the new ones two weeks ago. Will this interval be skipped entirely, or does the schedule just shift?

And will there be one last 5.6 release with outstanding bug fixes?

Cheers!

David

Yes, there will be a last 5.6 release with bug fixes from December.

Evening all,

We delay releases over new year and xmas, because nobody is working at that
time.

Releases from the 7 branches should be coming very soon.

Cheers
Joe
