Hi all.

After the previous discussion about the removal of the binary string prefix
and cast,
I have prepared an RFC to implement a deprecation phase for those.

You can find the RFC here:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/binary_string_deprecation

Looking forward to hear your feedback on the RFC or the implementation
patches.

Best regards,
Pedro Magalhães
