I have ported several PHP5 extensions to PHP7(rar, id3, quickhash) and will port some more in near future(probably bbcode, rpmreader, spl_types).
Thanks - will try that, also have contacted some maintainers(but only one of them is responding...)
Did this get any follow-up? The php-rar sources did not change recently...
No. Only quickhash port was accepted to official repository. I could not reach authors of other extensions (I did not try much more because I was quite busy with other tasks). Btw I have updated all my ports to support PHP 7.1. Once I have spare time I will try to contact authors of my ported extensions once more.
I'm not sure about PECL/rar, but PECL/id3 looks definitely unmaintained. Have you considered to apply for maintainership?
Yes almost all of extensions I rewrote seemed to be unmaintained. I thought about maintainership but I will not be able to maintain because I have multiple open source projects (one of which is PHP server running on Android, for which I did port) and simply too less time to properly maintain PHP extensions (my idea initially was one time port to PHP 7).
