Reminder that there is less than a single week for adding deprecations before the RFC needs to be in
a frozen state.
A few people have added new ones and some were sent directly to me which I just added.
I also reordered some of the deprecations to group them together in somewhat more logical places.
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_6
If anyone has any issues or additional proposals they can still be added or amended.
If none are added or amended, I will initiate a call to vote next week.
