I suggest we move forward on the topic. We're gonna enter November soon, this is a dead line to branch 5.6. I suggest we branch 5.6 from master, then run the 5.5 test suite against the branch, and remove every commit that leads to a BC break. The task shouldn't be too hard. When the branch is created, the wiki then would have to be updated to show the ideas we'd like to support (https://wiki.php.net/todo/php56) Julien Pauli
