Hey , We've been talking about PHP6 for several weeks now. From what I understand, we agreed on : - We must release a new major version, ASAP I'd say - It should be named "PHP6" - It should break BC where needed, and introduce new concepts - The main concept to concentrate on is Unicode implementation - All ideas have been grouped at https://wiki.php.net/ideas/php6 - We go for a 2 year developpment iteration All in one, 5.6 is going to be released in few months, and we now must concentrate on PHP6. For this, there are two needs : - Start writing RFCs, PHP6 specific, and start debating ideas on an "official" basis (RFCs + mail discussions) - Branch PHP6 , so that we can start hacking and get more motivations. Thoughts about how/when to branch PHP6 ? Julien Pauli
